I'm running the same NIC in my SE/30, but I'm not using the Asante
drivers. The ethernet drivers included in 7.5.3 'just work' out of
the box. I've heard bad things in the past about the Asante driver
pack, might be worth while to rip them out and use the stock
drivers.
Second possibility, change the address on the card, mine needed to
be switched when I put a large (9gb or bigger) HD on the machine.
Still haven't figured thatone out yet.
