RE: connect routers together with Token ring interface
Daniel, Yes, you need what is called a MAU or Multistation Access Unit. I have two on eBay that I am selling. They are both IBM 8228's and are in perfect condition. http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=357452542 You will also need some cables to connect it all together. Sorry, but I am still using all mine. But, if you do a search on eBay under the networking category for "Token Ring", you will find everything else that you need. You might also want to consider getting a couple of TR NIC cards so that you can put a few PC's on the ring. Hope this helps.
