I poked around on 3com's website, and it seems their policy on 
discontinued products is to require a service contract before 
they allow you to receive the drivers: 

    http://support.3com.com/software/terminal_srvrs.htm

    3Com Software Library - Additional Files - Terminal Servers
    ....
    NOTE: We have additional software available under our Software 
    Updates Service(contract required.) The products covered include 
    CS2500, CS2600, CS3000, CS3100 (COMServer products). For more 
    information see our Software Updates Service overview. 
    [ http://www.3com.com/products/dsheets/software.html ] 

Oh wait, that next link gives a "Not Found" page. 

I guess the lesson here is, "3com sucks".
