Which is what I was saying in my last post... The original poster would either have to plug the TR interface on the Router into a TR interface on a Switch that also has Ethernet Capabilities, and configure SRB, SRT, etc., or connect the TR Router to another TR/Ethernet router and let that router do the translation/media conversion.

Same argument still applies. It seems that he's got an ethernet network/connection that he wants to hook to the TR interface on the router. Either way, a simple connector/adapter isn't going to work, as they are totally difference methods of media access. Mike W. > > What exactly are you trying to accomplish here?
