PPP on a serial crossover cable can perform similarly 
to Ethernet on a crossover cable.  In 
http://easthope.ca/Shop.html#Links some of the notes 
connected to "ETH Oberon, PC Native 05.01.2003, usage 
notes." and "Networks" might help.  Most of the complications 
are for telephone modem use.  For a serial crossover 
cable, configuration and operation is simpler.  The link 
can be made to open automatically when Native O. boots.

The Sparcstation 2, for example, was limited to 9600 bps 
or so.  My old Toshiba laptops could run the line at 
38400 bps.  If that works, 57600 is also worth a try.

The Oberon ... usage notes also has a link to 
http://easthope.ca/PPPnotes.html.

Feedback about the notes is welcome.  They've received 
little attention and must need improvements.
