I have tried all three listed there, a natsemi based card (netgear fa311/312) a tulip based card (kingston KNE110 TX) and a 3com 3c905b (3c59x module)
All have the same result. I have used these cards before, and they alos work fine in windows, so i know the cards aren't bad. Would be strange for all 3 to fail at the same time anyway. --reno ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brett I.
