So I've had an ISA IBM Etherjet 10Mbps NIC in a 486 for ages but haven't done anything with it.
Since mTCP is so good I finally decided to try it out. I found the packet driver and worked out the parameters but when I try to run it I get an error about twisted pair not being detected.
So I tried some alternate network cable and an actual 10mbps switch instead of the 10/100 I originally plugged it into.
I also tried using LANAID (well I didn't want to install it so I just used the command line version LANAIDC) I tried changing lots of things like IRQ, Link Pulse, PNP but made no difference.
However looking at the actual card and switch when the packet driver tries to load (it does find the card just no network) the light on the switch and the NIC go off so the card doesn't appear to be connected when the packet driver loads and I don't understand why.
Oh and the card only has 10BASE-T no COAX or AUI so it can't be using the wrong one. The card also did work when I used it on WFW3.11 and 95 think a while ago in a different computer.
