My experience with IIgs bridges, with Netatalk or AppleShare 3.0 is
this:

Farallon: works as expected for 2-3 mins, then locks up

Dayna: AppleShare control panel hangs or crashes when opened (in
different ways on ROM 01 and 03). Network boot works, however.

Asante: If it figures out it's on a phase 2 AppleTalk network during
its startup, it behaves like the Dayna products

Mac w/LocalTalk Bridge: works well for everything

It would be great to figure out a way to get one of these bridges
working correctly for IIgs users, because a Mac with LocalTalk bridge
seems to be the only viable, commonly available option.
