I'm not sure of the exact model number of the terminal.... I've been calling it
a "928 terminal" because "928" is shown prominently on the top/left front of the
monitor. The 928 does look a lot like a 700/92 terminal, but the ports on the
back of the "928" are slightly different than the ports shown on the back of the
700/92 in this picture...

Anyway... I just bought a cheap 1703-60003 scsi/lan/console card. It
probably will not arrive until next week... so I'll report back next week on
my success or failure with this project :)
thanks for everyone's help/advice so far

Ed,
What is the model number? Have you gone into the data connection settings?
What modes have a asterisk? (Obviously remote mode is required.)
