Dear Managers,

The following is my original question:
> I am trying to locate a 100-Base-T4 network card for an Alpha. So far I
> have located a PCI one from 3Com but there are no DUnix drivers. Any leads
> would be appreciated.

>From the responses I've received so far I think I need to explain a little
better. 100-Base-T comes in two flavors. The most popular being TX, which DEC
sells. The other is T4. They both run over the same wires but are
incompatable protocols. If I can't find a Network Interface Card I was
thinking of seeing if a combination of a TX card and some sort of 100-Base-T
hub or repeater would work. Thanks for the messages so far.
