I'm using a 20Mhz 286 clone build. Got a 3com 3c509 network card & am currently using Procomm Plus on Windows 3.11 as my telnet client. Currently I'm experimenting with DOS serial port based comms software with a lantronix serial port to ethernet device. The windows setup is functional but a bit slow so playing with dos based software ATM to see what it's like.

Nice! Never got to play with an Amiga back in the day so don't know much about them. How well does you setup work? Was it difficult to setup?
