From a Beeb via Econet you'd use IP-over-Econet, see link.

Basically, you encapsulate the IP packet in an Econet packet on port &D2.
DIM ip% size_of_ip_packet
fill ip%?0 to .... with IP packet
NetTx(dest_station, flag=&81, port=&D2, start=ip%, end=ip%+size_of_packet)
This just looks like extra overhead for no gain. I couldn't find anything relevant in that page you linked to, but what are the benefits of wrapping things in two layers of protocol instead of one?
