This driver allows the direct coupling of computers with an Ethernet
interface using the G8BPQ protocol. Only PCs on the same physical segment
are reachable. Traffic over routers, bridges or multiport routers is not
possible.
ETHER uses a packet driver, which must be loaded before ETHER. This
driver uses Ethernet broadcasts and all stations listen, quite analogous
to an HF channel. When used with the original multicast address, the packet
driver must be set to receive mode #6.
On starting ETHER you need to specify the packet-driver interrupt to
use. The interrupt value can be given in decimal or hexadecimal notation,
prefixed by '0x'. FlexNet mode parameters are not applicable and are irgnored.
