Ah, yes, 10-base2. We used it at HP in Colorado Springs in the late
'80s.
Our basement 'cluster' is _still_ wired with it. Goes to the troll
under the stairs, the NeXT, some Unixey servers I had a hand in the
design of, etc. And to the Mac 7500, the laser printer (LW Pro 630),

your TIVOs to your area local network and transfer movies from one TIVO to
the other or to your computer. You can use either a wired network or a

The phone line is not a twisted pair and you would need 4 wires for
Phone line has _always_ been twisted pair. But whether it is Cat. 5

Thanks folks for all your help on educating me and setting me straight. Well
I'm pretty sure that the phone line solution is out. First of all I don't
have enough conductors, and then the potential for damaging things is not
worth the risk. I'll look a little more into the system that uses the

Barry,
I have a couple of caveats for you that I have not seen mentioned yet.
Just something to think about, really. First, the idea of using the
same cable your telephone
currently to work in serial as most all homes work. The reason that
when you receive a call all phones in your home ring is that they
receive the current at the same time. It runs in a loop, kind of like
an old string of christmas lights. Phones are not network devices.
