You might make sure that your netmask is set correctly. If you check that and
it still doesnt work, than we may be int the same boat. I have an ne2000
that I cant seem to make work. I have verified that it is not transmitting
anythig at all. I've been over the config many times, and I am certain
that it is correct (irq 2, adx 300h). If anyones go any straw that Jay or I 
cuold grasp at, please post them.
