Your query is less than three hours old, I would suggest giving a few
days until some of the members who are more experienced with BBC
networking issues have a chance to respond.
There is no reason why you couldn't simultaneously enquire on
news:comp.sys.acorn.networking but AFAIK the Beeb experience there may
be a bit thin these days.
Just for their information; are you using a TCP/IP stack on the BBC
(which one) or are you using pure ECONET?
Have fun getting all this working,
