The box I'm on now has a 3c905CTX, via cat5 to 10/100Mb HP Switch. The sw=
ithc
is connect to a 10/100 port on a Cisco 2609 router, via wan link to the h=
ome
office servers, etc.  I installed Linux and it found the NIC.  No further=

configuration was required.  Quite a bit different from NetBSD. To my
knowledge I'm using tcp/ip for the connection routed  to the internet acc=
ess
point in Dulles, VA.  =
