But dont forget SLIP. Without any adapter. All you needed was a serial
cable to a second computer with WIFI or whatever to the internet.

SLIP is cumbersome to configure. PPP is easier. Also, I'm not aware about a
SLIP implementation running on System 7.

To use IP over LocalTalk you need additional software to tunnel IP in
AppleTalk packets. Personally, I'm using older Cisco Routers for that purpose.
There never have been LocalTalk interfaces for those, though.

To connect LocalTalk and Ethernet network segments, you need either a Mac with
both ports, or a hardware bridge. Unfortunately, those are becoming rare.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I have a Cayman GatorBox CS in storage that does that. I used it mainly to
connect an Apple IIGS to a Netatalk server running on a Linux box, but I
think I might've gotten some sort of IP connectivity on a Quadra 610 or
Color Classic with it as well.

I've got a Cisco 2800 series running my appletalk zone, It works well with
my Farallon Etherwave serial to ethernet adapter. Saves my PDS slot for
other uses.
