If you don't find all the information you need I'd suggest you try and 
get in touch with Amanda Walker.  You will find her postings on some of 
the Mac Comm Usenet groups.  She wrote the original SLIP implementation 
for MacOS and helped the folks at Univerity of Michigan debug their 
inital PPP implementation when she was with InterCon.  They have been 
bought out by Lucent (I think) and she now works on Mac and PC cards and 
drivers that implement the "airport" stuff.  She's been pretty active 
answering questions about this technology and how it interacts between 
the Mac and PC.
