Ok, after altavista'ing round the web, its seems that they are TWO
models of zenith homeworks. i've the homeworks *universal*, model
LANHWU-5K-I, that my ISP rent to me. It's quite big, 21x8x28 cm,
black graphit-plastic box, five red led on the front (power, status,
colision, activity, receive, tranceive) and lots of connector on the
rear panel (PS, RS232, 10BaseT, two hf plugs).
