I'm trying to set up a basic peer-to-peer network
between my P200, a P70,
the Mac, and a 5170 in the garage. I have cards for the PC's, but I need
one for the Mac. I'm not sure what kind of card I need (first experience
with a network), so I hope the ones I have for the PC's are the correct
type
(they have the BNC connector). Is there any way to
tell what type they are
by looking at them?
well, any mac II series will need a nubus NIC. If most of the NICs have the
bnc (coax) connector, you'll have to get the same for the mac. Good thing is
that coax NICs (10base2) are easier to find since they are older. I was
lucky to find a combo NIC for my IIsi.
