I've since done my own tests on this and have had no problem getting my Asante ethernet card to work at the same time as the IIe card. https://68kmla.org/bb/index.php?threads/lc-575-comm-slot-ethernet-iie-card.49415/

I've got a dual 66mhz BeBox and a dual 133mhz BeBox but what I REALLY want is quad 200+mhz!

Oh so what we really want is some cloned CPU cards?

I wonder what the chances are of some unobtainable machines like a Daystar Genesis MP being reloaded.

This is really cool. I’ve been wanting to be able to do this on my 575/Mystic. Have you made more progress in your tests?

I made a short attempt at this. I think it will work but I'm not there yet. Running System 7.1 and OpenTransport 1.3 I can boot the IIe from the workstation card and it will look for a file server. I can get it to see share on a Raspberry Pi running Netatalk 4.2.1. I can get it to authenticate...

Yes, this is exactly what I expected. I always wondered how exactly it detected a device in the comm slot. I tried taking a look at the 575 schematics and didn't see anything so maybe its software, which IMO would make more sense. Maybe the IIe software scans for certain cards in the comm slot...

In my own testing, I have to switch to 24bit mode to use the IIe card. Under 32bit mode it doesn't work. Switching is annoying, but I was just happy to find that I could install an ethernet card and use it in both modes.

I recently upgraded my CC to a Mystic. I've got a IIe card and I've always read that having the IIe card requires 24-bit mode so a Comm Slot ethernet card would not work at the same time. Is this the correct general understanding? I'm asking because I've got an Asante Tech ethernet card in my...

What Ethernet card do you have? Does that work with the IIe card?
