I'm thinking of replacing my 28.8 PC card modem with one of the new
Megahertz 33.6 combo modem / ethernet cards (someone wants my old one). I
would like to improve my connectability with my desktop machine in the
basement. I do most of my computing on my thinkpad on the main floor.
Both systems run Win95. If I stick a twisted pair ethernet card into the
basement computer and connect the 2 what kind of major problems am I
looking at? I've never tried this before except normal use Novell
networks. Will this interfere with my Dial-up networking?
B/B
