The Linksys router does not include a NIC card. You can get a Linksys
or D-Link PCI NIC for less than US$15. I have one of each in my two
RH7.2 boxes. The D-Link uses the Tulip driver. I forget which one the
Linksys uses.

Hi,
OK, I will go with the Linksys router. I have checked for the
BEFSR41, its cost here in Montreal is around 129$ (Canadian)
which corresponds to roughly 80$ US.
The description of the unit though does not include an Ethernet

You can set the LynkSys to open certain ports and let those ports goto
certain machines.

I am very interested in the Linksys router, but I have one
question though. Although for most purpose, I do not want to
allow incoming connections from outside, there is one exception :
the gnutella network. This requires to have at least one port
open ( i.e. 6346 ). How using the linksys ro

I'm sorry for your experience. Clearly mine's been just the opposite.

Praytell, why do you say so? A hub doesn't do anything except, maybe,
signal regeneration for long runs, almost certainly not an issue here.
Also, a crossover most certainly can handle full duplex

Hi,
Even though I have been using Linux since RH4.1, I have only used
my computer as a stand alone machine. Now, my wife has bought a
new computer to run M$ ( which I will configure as a dual boot M$
win98 and RH7.2 ). The main computer, only runs Linux (RH6.2).
What do I need to connect thes
Thanks Mikkel,
This did fix the problem.
Cheers,

Thanks for the help Mikkel,
I got it working, but there are still some quirks namely at the
module level.
1) I have to run depmod -a manually as modprobe does not find the
ne2k-pci module. I would like to automate the loading of the
module. Up to now this is causing some problems.

Hi all,
I am trying to configure a cable connection. The Ethernet card is
a SMC1208T which I have been told is compatible with the ne2k-pci
module. The ethernet card seems to be working as the lights are
flashing. I started the module manually:
