I need some help.I want to connect a Q650 to a pc over ethernet.I know the
software i'm going to use, the help I need is about the hardware side of
the problem.All the different terms are very confusing.
I know I need a transceiver for the mac (which type?).The question is over
the connection to the pc which will be only a couple of feet away.
The pc has got a 3com combi card with "BNC,RJ-45 and AUI" connectors.
Please can some one tell me what is needed to connect these two together,if
it is possible to avoid the complications of a hub.
A good reference on the net would be appreciated.
