Note, this card is listed in the "bad clones" list of the driver, you might want to consider getting a card without known hardware cruft... Almost all ISA PNP cards use the built in NE2000 support, which is already built into tomsrtbt, the problem is that you must either: (1) Get and install the isapnp packages yourself (isapnp, pnpdump, etc.) or (2) Set the card to use a fixed IRQ and PORT (this is what I recommend) or (3) Replace the kernel with one with builtin ISAPNP support (mine doesn't) The easiest way to do (2) is to use the Dlink supplied utilities diskette, booted from a DOS floppy. When you do this change, it writes to the card's eeprom- you only have to do it once- it sticks. Basically you want to set it to something like port 300 or 330 or 240, if it is too oddball you might need to also specify it at boot, and the IRQ. What you are doing here is disabling ISA plug and play and telling the card to act like a dumber (but supported) NE2000 clone. -Tom
