Ok, I have the right drivers, everything is working except the card fails to
find dhcp on bootup and once again, I can't make it go. I'm not sure where
to go from here. The network settings are all accurate, the card just
doesn't seem to go still. I've tried manually assigning an IP and still no
go. Any clues?
Regards,
Angus

Subject: Re: [expert] troubles with a dlink card
Using the same card under linux, works fine with via-rhine drivers. No clue
what's causing your trouble though...
Well, not a very helpful mail, but at least now you know that you're right
about
the "via-rhine" stuff. Sometimes it helps to switch some PCI cards from
their
respective slots, sometimes it doesn't. Have you checked the NIC under
windhose
yet? If it doesn't work under windows, you probably have a defective NIC.
Since
D-Link gives lifetime warranty on it's products (or at least I believe to
have
read that somewhere in their manuals) you should have no trouble getting a
replacement, no matter how old the NIC is.
