If you are trying to use 2 or 3 of the RJ45/AUI/BNC connectors, that won't
work. You need to select one. Besides, even if the connectors were all active
at the same time, you'd have all RX and all TX connected together... so a TX
packet could go out on all media and the RX could see packets from all 3 media
simultaneously resulting in garbage. Collisions would generate jam signal on
all media seriously degrading bandwidth. Users on different media won't see
each other, the card is not a media convertor. Etc.
