Re: Shiva FastPath Help?

Hey all. I found a Shiva FastPath on eBay, thinking I could use it to
get my IIGS on my home network. 
It didn't come with a "transceiver", which I think is just a
dongle-thing to convert the 10base2 to 10baseT. Is that correct, and
where can I get one?
Transceiver aside, is that a FastPath 5? If so, expect problems when bridging to Apple 2 LocalTalk. It will appear to work for a while, but eventually the A2 will lose contact with the server and the session dies.
My older FastPath 4 units were far more reliable. They must have screwed something up in the firmware, I guess.
