Jude,

Are Ethernet cards still easily found? I have seen the reference on occasion, and wondered if they had other purposes, or their specific technical purpose?
Thanks,
Karen

One could just use ms-kermit 3.16 or 3.15 on the dos box and get the proper packet driver installed for their ethernet card to work with dos and once that's done a little configuration with kermit might or might not be necessary. Kermit is set to look for 192.168.1.1 by default and if it finds an ehternet card there, you're effectively on the net. Kermit was able to go out on ethernet cards back in the early 1990's and was pulling large files down very quickly in those years.
