Thanks for the advice.

I have since connected under Windows but cannot get it to work under 
OS/2 using the Injoy Firewall 1.4 product.

Can you give me any hints on how you got it connected using firewall?

I have it setup using ethernet.  I have tried all the settings.

I will be receiving ECS 1.1 soon so if Injoy doesn';t work then I hope 
ECS will otherwise I am stuffed.
