That's not something I've got any experience with unfortunately. I used to
use a SCSI based CD-RW on the Amiga, but more recently I've found a
scsi/ide adaptor which means I can use a cheap IDE CD/DVD/RW that the
Amiga sees as SCSI.

There are some excellent free Amiga drivers for PCMCIA network cards,
(which are cheaply available on Ebay.) I used to use one before I got a
pci network card for my Mediator board.
All the best,
