Right now the incoming connection is SLIP but that will change to 10-T Ethernet. The NIC that is in there now is a generic NE2000 card. The question is...what kind of NICs should I be using to peacefully allow two of them to coexist and have stable driver support? Any advice on the subject would be greatly appreciated.
