NIE 2.0 packages can be seperated into roughly two groups: core packages
and drivers.

In core packages, we have the main NIE package itself (Internet Enabler)
and Internet Setup.

In drivers, there is the Modem Support package, the Newton Devices
package, and the NIE Ethernet package. The latter two are only needed for
ethernet cards, and the modem package is (obviously) only needed for
modems.

There is also a LocakTalk support package, but I have no idea what this
does (I would assume enables LocalTalk support using the Newt's serial
port)

Optionally, there is the ISP templates package that adds some pre-made
setup types to NIE Setup.
