Nancy and RJ,

I have been reading and saving your messages with Richard because I have
been piddleing around with kinda the same idea.

My XP box is connected through a Router to a DSL Modem.

A friend gave me a ISA NIC that runs at 10 Mc/s that I put in my 486
DOS/Win 3.1 box.

He didn't have a driver for it.

I have tried using Arachne to get the 486 box to talk to the Router but
didn't have any luck.

I will have to open the box up to see what brand the NIC is so I can
take RJs suggestion to look for a driver on the cards website.

Thanks for the help.
