I don't recall which version of OpenTranspart, except it was the version coming with the specific version of the OS. The only extension that was specific to Ethernet that I had to enable was the one from Asante. That extension was used by the TCP/IP control panel to select the EN/SC, and also by the AppleTalk control panel. I've never tried classic networking (AKA MacTPC). Never had a problem, except with AppleTalk that would give me a problem when the computer would go to sleep. So, you're running 8.1 with OpenTransport? You should be set, except if you didn't install the Asante extension that will let you select the EN/SC in the TCP/IP and AppleTalk control panels. That's the only thing I see that could possibly be your problem. You have plenty or RAM, the right system software, so I only see the AppleTalk extension missing. -Laurent. -- ============================================================ Laurent Daudelin <http://home.cox.rr.com/nemesys> Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net!
