you can download the datasheets for the 'basic' ne2000 from national.com -
look for the 8390 chipset and the at/lantic chipset. Beware - the task is
VERY hard - way beyond the talents of most programmers.

Think about using a high-level interface like netbios or NDIS; that way you
easily find drivers and become able to use many brands of cards.
