- Which distro are you running now?
- relevant syslog snippet would be very helpful :)
To start:
Does it beep when you insert the card?
No beep: pcmcia subsystem not started -> run /etc/init.d/pcmcia start
1 beep followed by a lower tone beep: card not supported -> I need logs to help
you here
2 beeps: probably the interface is up but not binded to any IP address ->
Temporary fix is to use ifconfig to assign a static ip address
to ethX
Better solution is to modify (distro dependent)
/etc/pcmcia/network.opts
