Hmmm I've downloaded the 3com DOS drivers with the file 3c5x9cfg.exe and
there you can see wich one has wich interrupt. If you know this, you can
find out wich one STN finds as Eth0 and Eth1 (by removing one of the NICs
temporarily and using this prog)

But there must be another way to 'force' eth0 to be the first nic or
something

That's the way it works for me too - but here's another twist!

Say I have TWO of those beasties in the same box  Apparently I cannot do
anything to distinguish between them (I cannot even say that eth0 is the
one at 0x280 and eth1 is the one at 0x290)

At startup - it seems to take its pick as to which one is which.

Errrrr!!!
