I'm considering getting a used Amiga networking card by Commodore.
(Maybe this isn't overly wise, but I'm staying the course with the Amiga.)

 Does anybody have any software to run/test this thing?  I imagine
it originally came with software and manuals, but since it was
saved from the trash heap (a college was throwing out an A2500)
it doesn't come with any software or manual.  I don't even know
if it works.  I imagine it uses TCP/IP of some sort?

If anybody has any software to run/test this thing or advice,
please contact me.

First of all, you need to identify _which_ C= networking card
this is.

Both the A2060 Arcnet and the A2065 Ethernet boards are described in the 
Boards section of the A4000 Hardware Guide.  The .device files can be 
found in the dev/misc/sana2_v2.lha file on Aminet.
