    I just put a 3c505 in my 386SX clone and I am experiencing similar
    problems.  FTP, Inc. telnet crashes...

You don't say if you're using our linked-in driver (PC-204) or the Packet
Driver (PC-210).  If you're having problems with the Clarkson 3C505 Packet
Driver, I'd recommend trying the direct version (ask Tech Support for it),
because (since v2.05) it loads code onto the board to fix a number of bugs
in the on-board ROM driver that 3Com ships.  3Com gave us the down-load
module, but you'd need their permission to distribute source before the
Clarkson driver could be upgraded to use it.  Alternatively, get 3Com's
NDIS driver for the board and use the DIS_PKT adapter module...
