<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV>Hi all</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>As usual being driven by poverty and ignorance leads to some pretty odd solutions to problems.</DIV>
<DIV>Heres my problem </DIV>
<DIV>I have a PC I will call master and 2 PC's slave 1 and slave 2</DIV>
<DIV>Master and slave 1 are networked with some old ISA cards using Coax t connectors and terminators , this works just ! ( wrong coax cable type but it works )</DIV>
<DIV>Slave 2 that I want on this network has the new 'telephone style ' socket for it's network connector.</DIV>
<DIV>How can they be connected ? I do have a PCI network card this this telephone style connector iF I put that in the master and use a crossed cable will all the pc's appear on the same network ?</DIV>
<DIV>Yes I know a hub and 2 PCI new style cards and cables would be easier but I have to work with what I have at present. </DIV>
