I've used pc2amiga before ethernet. You can find it from Aminet,
comm/misc/PC2Am308.lha
Speeds: with laplink cable about 50 kB/s and with special cable about 100
kB/s. I have self-made special cable for sale!
You can access pc drives from Amiga but you can't see Amiga drives from PC.
Both computers freeze quite totally when files are transferring. You need ECP
(or was it EPP) printer port in Pc if you want to use special cable.
