I am interested in hardware compatibility issues pertaining to 
LAN transceivers.  It's my impression that almost any transceiver 
out there is compatible on the coax side, but the transceiver to 
DTE interface is a different story.  Other than the obvious fact 
that Ethernet 1 is not compatible with IEEE 802.3,  there seems 
to be a lot of ancedotal data floating around as to what works 
(or doesn't work) with what.  I am interested in collecting and 
compiling these experiences.  If you are working with LAN 
hardware and have some of this empirical knowledge I would 
appreciate it if you would share it with me.  As always, if there
is enough response the results will be summarized and posted to
the net.
