Hello, Tony

As I'm remember winFBB7.00i don't have direct Ethernet interface,
it was develooped when networks was not much used for packet hi hi...

But its possible to use BPQ switch with Ethernet loaded before Windows to
interface with winfbb in Win9x, only need to distable network card in windows
(hide it from windows), or install second network card, that will be used
only by BPQ. But how much stable this system i'm dont know.

On second end you can install surprus PC 386/486 with much COMs even w/o HDD
with BPQ or XROUTER or Flexnet node program and link them to your main PC
with FBB over Ethernet with BPQ as ethernet-driver...

As on my think its time to write 'from clear paper' new win32 fbb-type BBS 
software, that will be easy interface with all modern network and packet
equipment... Any volunteers?!
