i've had a lot of luck with the 3C509, but can't seem to find anything at all for the 3C515... does anyone have a workaround to get this working in DOS?

how much of this was made by ai and have you tested any of it on real hardware? Makefile doesnt work for me, and includes config files that dont exist (build/build_config.mk etc)
I find it interesting that its meant for dos but not buildable on dos (all those long filenames).

The only devtool shipped with DOS is a Basic interpreter - and some versions lack even this.
When releasing a piece of software written in any other language, executable is a must!
I have recently found this web that compiles all know packet driver for DOS:
Nice, but there are three important problems:
1. there's no packet driver for 3C515
2. existing packet drivers for 3Com PCI cards are known to be buggy
3. there's no DOS drivers of any kind for 3CSOHO100B
So, the project to make a completely new PD for various 3Coms is potentially precious - I really hope it succeeds!
Even though the 3CSOHO100B seems to be beyond the scope of that project.
