CMC has 68K-based ethernet boards which may me a little better than the Excelan.
One particular board has 68010 with 512K.  Our local rep is Gary Berkowitz (818)
884-2766 or their home office 805-936-9471.

We have not used it yet.  Thus I cannot comment on its performance.  We are in
the process of proccuring one.
