Thank you for your answers.
I am not looking to establish a network connection. All I want is to drive infrared appliances from my DraCo (which I am currently modding/building up), I am talking specifically about stand alone media players.
The problem is that DraCos dont have joyports, Airlink and Infrarexx would have been the perfect choice if they could work from other port other than the joystick one.
Any clue to accomplish this thru a serial or parallel port is apreciated 
I wonder if it could be done via a parallel joyport adapter. Normally these adaptors add 2 more ports for 4 player gaming. I don't know if they would work for driving Airlink, maybe.
