There is just a Mac address on the card.
Is it possible to make this card work ?

You should have asked to speak to an engineer who

Thanks in advance
Try pinging the broadcast addresses in the 192.168.*.* range.
Or run ethereal (you have to be root) and look for
the ARP messages (Address Resolution Protocol) that
are used to communicate the mapping between an
ethernet card's MAC address and its IP address.
Oh, I forgot..when you run ethereal, you have to tell
it to go into "promiscous mode"
