The Dock program on the Newton won't "see" an AppleTalk machine on the network
unless that machine has NCU running. Did you have NCU running when you tried
to connect?

What kind of router do you have? Does it support EtherTalk (Appletalk over
Ethernet)?

For a bog-standard 3c589D-TP, you only need the Farallon driver and the
3comaddon.pkg, not the other one.
