Can we do anything?? There are adapters in the market which convert from BNC to RJ-45. Your LAN is BNC. Your notebook has a RJ-45 (that is what they call the adapter that connects to UTP cables). UTP is Unsheilded Twisted Pair. What you need is an adapter which you can get from most computer and communciation stores. Regards.

Either the router may be filtering out this traffic or a firewall may be intentionally keeping you from seeing other nets. It's a common practice, often for reasons of security or performance (keeping the SAP/RIP traffic down as to not saturate the WAN links).

DH> Yeah, like all documentation tells you exactly what you need to know DH> :-)) Say that again. Just thought you might have been more lucky than most. :-) DH> What's this Client32 software? I have only set up networking as it DH> came on the Win95 CD - haven't added any extra bits to it! If I remember correctly, your initial message was related to connecting to a Novell server. (Right or wrong?) Following the release of Windows95 Novell produced a Netware client specifically for Windows95 so users wouldn't have to use the Microsoft Novell client supplied with Windows95. This is called Client32 and is available from WWW.NOVELL.COM as is the lastest updates. Note that this client is for access to Novell servers and is not required for peer-to-peer sharing within Windows95. If I can be of any further assistance, just drop me a line.
