Hello Again!
I'm going to be getting the rest of the bits for my IPC this weekend, I
was wondering how I could network it up without resorting to thicknet. I
have a hub that Does AUI, 10-bT and thinnet, the IPC has AUI as well.
The official way to link the two (female) AUI ports is two tranceivers
and a thicknet cable which I can't be done with - I have been reading
about an AUI crossover cable, with maybe a homebrew collision generator
PCB...
Any experience with this sort of thing, guys? Tips?
Find yourself a 10Base2 or 10BaseT AUI transciever. Building an AUI
concentrator might be fun, but I'm sure it'd be a pain in the preverbial
ass. Look on eBay, there's usually stuff like this there. Four of them
are listed right now:
