PC/104 systems with multiple processors or peripherals that have Ethernet interfaces can use a PC/104 Ethernet switch or hub board to be networked together. Fast Ethernet and 10BaseT switches or hubs are available with auto-MDI-MDIX network installation and up to five auto-configurable 10/100 transceiver ports. Ethernet connections are made through either onboard RJ-45 jacks or via right-angle Molex connectors that can be used to mount RJ-45 jacks in a faceplate, endcap or enclosure.

Again no (though see earlier sections for other ways to share files between PCs and Acorn machines). Work is ongoing to add support for AUN to Linux, both over Ethernet and (when running on suitable hardware) native Econet, but there is no usable implementation yet. All Acorn computers since the Master have had their Econet station number stored in the first byte of CMOS RAM. If the battery goes flat, or you reset the CMOS RAM, it will get cleared to zero - this isn't a legal station number.

With the current adapters you cant, the USB modem is the DSL equivalent of a WinModem and requires some processor power to perform the modem functions and convert the ATM data into TCP/IP for presentation to the PC. There is a Draytek device however which can effetively act as a router and presents ethernet to the user side. See details here.

There are two RJ45 ports at the back of the Bluetooth Access Point, LAN and Uplink (port with a X sign). If you are connecting via a router, please use a standard RJ45 ethernet cable and plug into the LAN port. If you are connecting directly from the ethernet jack on the wall, then you should use a standard RJ45 ethernet cable and plug into the Uplink port (or a crossover RJ45 ethernet cable and plug into the LAN port).

For wired connections users must fill out an IP address request form for each machine they want connected to the network. You will need to enter the hardware (MAC) address for the Ethernet card being used. We use DHCP to provide IP addresses for laptops, whether it is a wireless or wired connection. We will assign static IP addresses for desktop and server machines.

Yes, all you have to do is to obtain an IP address from your network administrator and follow the instructions in the installation guide.

Yes. SELECT customers may have up to four computers connected simultaneously. However, CLASSIC customers may only have one computer connected to the network at a time. Yes, with Choice OnLine you can surf the Net and simultaneously make phone calls or watch TV. To use a fax machine or dial-up modem while surfing the Net, you must have a normal phone line available. Your computer will not allow you to use our Choice OnLine service and dial-up to another Internet service simultaneously.

Yes the SQ2020 2F8, SQ2040 2F16 and the SQ2040 4F16 have inbuilt Ethernet connection. For the SQ2020 1F8 we supply a serial RS232, Ethernet converter kit (SQ20A801) a power adaptor lead is included with the kit to power the modem and the Squirrel from the mains power pack (MPU-12V)

Answer: Cat5 Ethernet cables can be used for a maximum of 100 meters between any Audia device and the Ethernet switch. Ethernet switches are also available with fiber optic ports which can extend the distance up to 2 km.

Probably. Any wireless receiver supporting the industry standard 802.11b or 802.11g protocols should work. However, in rare cases, we have found wireless receivers which had compatibility issues with the computer upon which it was installed.

Florian Xaver postet a list of intersting DOS network links to the FreeDOS mailing list: http://www.freedos.org/freedos/news/technote/157.html. Thanks a lot!

You should try increasing the switch time using "multinet changeparams -switch ". Also make sure the wireless zero config is turned off, and you are able to connect to the network. A way to check for connectivity is by following these steps. Firstly, turn off the MultiNet service, using "net stop MultiNetService". Then, turn on Wireless Zero Configuration, and try connecting to your network. Once you are done testing, turn off Zero Configuration, and turn on the MultiNet service.

No. You are not permitted to connect any 'network infrastructure' equipment to the network, therefore it is not possible to connect more than one computer.

Generally, with the equipment we're using - you need to have Line of Sight (LOS) to someone on the network already and they probably need to be within a few miles of you even with a clear LOS. Once you connect to them - you're on the network and should be able to connect to anyone else on the network regardless of how far away from you they are.
