Hello again..
I think I have fixed the problem. I realised that I did not load the
Farallon driver, just the 3Com 'addon' pkg. I thought this was all that
was required but I guess not. A quick trip to Victor's awesome Newton
Ethernet page taught me otherwise.
So here I am browsing away on my Newton on my speedy ethernet
connection! YUM!!
Thanks to everyone for their help!!
Cheers,
Nitin
