OK - got it - so the older Macs use a gizmo that plugs into the back
of the Mac - called PhoneNet and then a phone cable inserts into the

will I hook a PhoneNet to the I Mac - does that work. AS I said, I
haven't looked yet - the "connections" are on the side of the IMac.

Perhaps. It depends on what you mean by "older Macs."
Only the oldest don't have an ethernet port (or a version Apple called
AAUI). You may need an adapter to provide a "standard" connection to
the AAUI for a cat5 cable that you can connect to a "dumb hub" to
create your network.
