Ditto on the SCSI to Ethernet Adapter.
I picked up a used Asante EN/SC SCSI-to-Ethernet adapter off eBay for a dollar and used a power supply from an old cordless phone. Plugged it in, installed the drivers and bam, I'm on the net. It works fine with my switch, a 3Com Superstack 10/100 switch.

There are several ways you can do this. One way is to get an SCSI to Ethernet Adaptor for your SE. A second way is to look for one of those Ethernet Card for your SE slot (I think they exist). A third way is to you one of your PowerMac running OS9 and before as a bridge (you need to download the Ethernet to Localtalk Bridge from Apple) to your localtalk network. Last but not least, you can get a hardware ethernet to local talk bridge to bridge the two.
Personally, I think the best way to go is to get the SCSI to Ethernet Adaptor. I got my Plus running that way.

I know it seems absolutely useless, but I'd like to get Internet on my old
Mac SE. (Just for the sake of adding use to a useless box) I have a
wireless ethernet network with a mixture of Mac and Wintel boxes. What I'd
like to do is rout the Internet that comes in through the Ethernet out
through Localtalk on the printer/modem port. I've tried it before, and
downloaded a shareware router thing, but I had no clue how to work it.
I suppose it's practically worthless to put Internet on an SE, but at
least I'd have the old Eudora and MacWeb stuff to use when I have friends
using the rest of my network; lol.
Any help u give needs to be in baby talk, as I know nothing about
software routers and such. :-P
Thanx,

HEY!
I've internetted with my SE. I used MacWWW 1.x. It, with the images turned
off, really DOES the internet.
I've even internetted with a Plus using only two floppy drives. Pretty crashy, but it doable.
