We had some problems with the Interlan NI1010A. It would talk to a 3-com
transceiver, but not to the NT100. The problem turned out to be also some
delay line timing problems. After the swapping the board, it started to
work.

If the Interlan boards don't work with the DELNI, cause the parts on
the boards working properly, kick Interlan until they deliver working
boards, or get your money back and buy something else.
