Hi netters,
I asked a question about 3c523 cards before and got a good response.  Thank
you all again.

I have a tougher question now.  I just downloaded Version 8 of the clarkson
packet drivers which includes a driver for the ISOLINK ethernet card.  I 
have tried loading the packet driver but it does not work.  The packet
driver runs without complaint, but the ethernet address of the card that is
displayed by the program is 00:00:00:00:00:00.  Hence I dont think the 
packetdriver is talking to the card properly.

Has anybody had success with a ISOLINK BICC 4113 card?  How did you get it to
work.  The address of the card is 0xC000 which the packet driver doesn't need
to know (which I think is strange), is there an option I dont know of?

Software comes with the card is it necessary to load this or does the packet
driver do it all?

If somebody has got a ISOLINK card and has got the packet driver to work,
could you tell me the parameters you use when you call the packetdriver.
Also the jumper settings of the card.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
