As mentioned, I don't have any issues with built-in Via Rhine

work.
You need to ascertain whether it's the card or the slot that's the
problem. Try the card in a different machine (even if it's just an
ordinary PC) and make sure it works in there. If possible, try another
NIC in the Soekris and see if that works.
I seem to (vaguely - it's several years since I've used the 5501) recall
that the PCI slot doesn't support both 3.3v and 5v. I honestly can't
remember which way round it was though...
Update: a quick read of its spec sheet indicates it only supports 3.3v:

So it might be that your Intel NIC is expecting 5v signalling,
especially if it's an old (pre-PCI 2.2) card.
Kind regards,
Chris
