Re: Linksys Router Fred, You're way out of my league here. I got the router, plugged it in and it's worked great ever since. I haven't monkeyed around with it to see what's possible. I would suggest mailing your question to linksys. chic

Fred: re<Linksys router> Will this work over a Novell 3.12 with BNC thin-coax or does it have to all be RJ45 - cat5 type cables?? Is there a way to mate this thing to my network with a jumper or something to convert bnc - to RJ45?? thanks.. It'll work with anything that runs TCP/IP. You'll need an RJ45 (10BaseT/100BaseT) connection. You can purchase 10Base2 (thin coax) to 10BaseT (RJ45) media converters at Fry's, CDW, etc. Easier solution would be to buy an AUI to 10BaseT transciever, if your 10Base2 NIC card has an AUI port (most do). BTW, I think you need to upgrade your network to 10BaseT or Fast Ethernet ASAP. 10Base2 is nothing but trouble, not to mention you can't buy anything for it anymore. Sam
