Is Garmins new "network" also plain ethernet ?



Given marine electronics manufacturers' history of proprietary crapware
designed specifically to thwart hooking "their" equipment up to "our"
equipment, I doubt any of it is going to be "plain ethernet" just any ol'
router TCP/IP network is going to be compatible with.

Hell, even some of the NMEA 0183 crapware can't talk to each other. (See
recent thread trying to get a Garmin GPS to talk to a NMEA plotter.)

You'll need a special box, of course, like always. 183 Euros plus layers
of tax and shipping....
