So, I was wondering if anyone on the list might just happen to
know of some NIC-stick model I'm unaware of, that _has_ been
made to work under eCS ?   Jordan

      
IIRC there are some "wireless adapters" that plug into the Ethernet port
on the computer, the box itself doing the translation from wired network
to WiFi.  So long as the onb board LAN is supported by OS/2, then these
units will function perfectly.  I forget the manufacturer, but I am sure
someone will be along soon to remind me :)
    

It is called a "game adapter".  The one I have is a "Linksys WGA54G Wireless-G
Game Adapter"

  
However, Jordan mentioned in his original post:

So, my understanding is that the onboard ethernet in the Shuttle XPC he has is not supported under OS/2, thus requiring an additional (supported) ethernet adapter of some type. The ethernet bridges still need a working wired adapter at the machine.

Jordan, was I incorrect in my reading of your post?
