Re: [Freedos-user] Netgear LNE100TX

2021-07-27 Thread Richard Hoffman
I originally thought that it might be an irq conflict.  Because irq 11 was
used by multiple devices according to bios.  But I switched the card to
another pci slot and it worked.  So it must have been a bad connection like
you said.  It was still irq 11, but I got a valid address, and DHCP
worked.

Thanks for all the help.

I have that exact same card in a Pentium 133 system.  It's a good card.

This sounds silly, but try removing and reseating the card in the slot.
Really ...  I've had cards that have been installed for ages where the
electrical contact on the pins oxidizes and then the card becomes flakey,
and this specific card has done that to me.  If you have "tuner cleaner" or
some other electronic contacts cleaner, use that on the card edge connector.

The MAC address should not be FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF - that is a sign of a
communication problem with the card or a hardware fault.  You should check
your BIOS settings for any sign of a conflict with another card, but PCI
BIOSes are pretty good about that so that is probably not your problem.

I did the nicscan.  Just to see if it would recognize the card.  I didn't
think to search for the driver based on the result.  I just downloaded the
driver based on a Google search for the card.  I'll nicscan it again and
see it it's different.

Try using Georg Potthast's NICSCAN [0][1] or David Dunfield's PCINIC [2][3]
to find the NIC.  I think PCINIC can even suggest a driver from PKTDRV [4].

That driver doesn't like or can't find your card.

[Freedos-user] Netgear LNE100TX

2021-07-26 Thread Richard Hoffman
Hi,

I have been having trouble setting up my ethernet card on my freedos
installation.   I am currently attempting to set up this card with the
LNE100TX.com packet driver.

I run the driver with LNE100TX 0x60  and I get the following

Autonegotiation Not Complete
Packet Driver Interrupt Number 0X60
IO Port 0xDC00
Hardware Interrupt Number 11
Media Type Is 100baseTX Full Duplex
My Ethernet Address Is FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
Packet Driver is loaded at segment 3C2

I have my network wired from my DSL router to an 8 port 10/100 mbps
switch.   From there it goes to my windows 10 pc and my freedos pc.

I have tried about every switch option with the packet driver and I keep
getting the same result.  Is this a hardware problem with the ethernet card
or is it a router issue?

Also could this be an IRQ conflict?

Thanks.
