Hi,

Recently I bought a secondhand PowerBook 1400c with the Focus EtherLAN
internal Ethernet board installed.

The board itself offers an RJ-45 socket, which I can't connect to our
departmental 10BaseT BNC network without buying a mini-hub, which I don't
want to do.  I would happily trade this board (which is considerably
faster than a PCMCIA Ethernet adapter) for a (Mac-friendly) PCMCIA card
capable of linking to a 10BaseT BNC connector.

Otherwise, Cyberian Outpost sells these for $118 - I will sell the card,
manual and installer disk for $US 80 or the equivalent in Australian
dollars (about $110), plus postage.

Please reply by e-mail.

      Thanks,

         Matthew.

BNC is not a 10BaseT standard, you mean 10Base2 thin-net coax, The 'T' in
10BaseT means twisted pair with a RJ-45 plug and socket.
