We are getting ready to move our store and have 2 seperate networks now with 4 Macs and 5 pcs.
One is an Appletalk over Localtalk cabling (mostly used for sending small files, under 100k and printing, it is a hold over from IIsi days, but it works and I didn't want to pull new cable). The systems are all beige G3s running 9.2 The other is a standard TCP/IP windows with an NT 4 server (I do have 2000 server, I just haven't installed it) with primarily win 98 clients. A couple of questions: 1) Can I use the same Hub/switch (say a 16 port) for the apple network as the win network? 2) our current net connection is through a dialup. When we get a high speed (dsl) connection, can we just plug the router into this hub and use it for the connection to the net? besides the standard security issues with wintel, is there anything else I need to watch out for?
