I have been thinking of getting a NIC in my 5160 and implementing the mtcp to utilize FTP. I realize many 16bit networking cards will operate in an 8bit slot, but I would prefer to keep it all 8bit cards if possible. have found an 8bit ethernet NIC for sale, but the specs indicate it is for a linear bus network.
I'm not very familiar with network tech this old, but I thought all coax was linear bus. This card has a BNC connector, and the 15 pin sub d connector. I have an old hub with provisions for both coax and twisted pair that I was going to use to interface it with the rest of my network.
My attempts to research this have been frustrating, so I'll ask the group, does anyone know if this card work on my network?
