This could be a power issue, the soekris boxes are low power and can't run all the peripherals that match the interface's form factor.On 26/9/12 12:35 pm, İhsan Doğan wrote:As mentioned, I don't have any issues with built-in Via Rhine interfaces. My problem is, that the Intel card on the PCI slot does not work.You need to ascertain whether it's the card or the slot that's the problem. Try the card in a different machine (even if it's just an ordinary PC) and make sure it works in there. If possible, try another NIC in the Soekris and see if that works.I seem to (vaguely - it's several years since I've used the 5501) recall that the PCI slot doesn't support both 3.3v and 5v. I honestly can't remember which way round it was though...Update: a quick read of its spec sheet indicates it only supports 3.3v: http://soekris.com/products/net5501.htmlSo it might be that your Intel NIC is expecting 5v signalling, especially if it's an old (pre-PCI 2.2) card.
