SYS$SYSTEM:SYS$CONFIG.DAT ?
Have you seen any support anywhere in VMS which might let
you configure such a card?

A Powerline adapter used as an Ethernet emulator should
work about as well as a real Ethernet cable. No special
hardware or software would be needed for that.

Often called a wireless bridge. Again, once configured,
it should be transparent. Some (cheap, used) router models
can be configured that way, too.
