Try using modprobe instead of insmod: # modprobe ne io=0x220 I believe (although I've never tried this) that PCI ne2k cards don't need the io value, but ISA ones definitely do. I found out my io address by doing: for io in 200 220 240 260 280 300 320 340 do echo $io modprobe ne io=0x$io sleep 1 done This successfully loaded the card for me (although it's still not working - I suspect there are other problems somewhere in the system).
