I don't think Apple ever wrote their NB drivers or LC drivers to support any other NICS, other companies made their NICs to look like Apples. AFAIK ALL LC NICs look like Apple's LC NIC. What's nasty is that some 3rd party NB NICs ALMOST work with Apple's driver. It will see them and let you select them but then won't work properly. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting [EMAIL PROTECTED] "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
