Does anyone know if they're supported? (b) The FAQ says the Elite Ultra (aka 8216) does work but it doesn't mention the 8216C. Again, does anyone know if this works (it's a combo with RJ-45, BNC and AUI ports)? (c) Anyone got comments on using an NE2000? Is performance acceptable? Any config problems? Thanks, Mike ---
