Anyone know of a decent gateway for converting Modbus to Device Net? We make a product which uses Modbus RTU protocol and RS-485 for serial communications, but we keep getting asked to provide Device Net. I have tried the MKS Instruments unit which is brand labeled by several other people, but I find it difficult to work with and limited in functionality. I am interested in experiences and preferences.

Any other brands / units out there? I have googled them but the concept is too general for google or other search engines, I get 15 thousand hits, of which I'm sure 14,990 are useless to me. I am looking for opinions on workable solutions that you may have used before.
