Any ideas? Thanks in advance... That card probably has an 82c168 "PNIC" chip on it so neither of those types will work. Believe me, it sucks (look at the FreeBSD driver for all of the hackarounds for chip bugs). I have two of those and even Linux-2.4 with all their elves plinking on it I can't get crap rate through it, unlike the 21140 I have (at least when I tried it last).

(FA311 and FA312 are completely different devices.) From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: forsyth@vitanuova.com To: 9fans@cse.psu.edu Subject: Re: [9fans] LinkSys EtherFast 10/100 settings?
