+Hardware TNCs come in two main flavours: KISS, and traditional.
+Traditional TNCs are generally serial host devices, to which you connect with a serial cable and a USB adapter, using terminal software like PuTTY or Tera Term, and they present a command shell to the user to type commands to. KISS TNCs do not have this, and instead delegate most of their processing to a packet engine running on their host PC.
