It is not an ethernet/token ring, it is a direct connection. You cannot use an ethernet
cable to make a direct connection between two computers. The ethernet cable has the
wrong pin setup. They both are the same size and will fit into network cards but
you need a Direct Connect Crossover or patch cable to make a Direct Connection work.
