Hi, I have two PC computers:

one: 486Dx4 100Mhz, 16Mb Ram and a Ovislink 8029R AMI Bios 1994/7/25
other: Pentium II 350 Mhz, 64 Mb Ram and a Ethernet Card (PCI) with the same
Realtek chip.
Cable: BNC 4 m.
with the terminators and T connectors

I start the two system with a diskette and then run the rset8029 programs.
The test to the two NIC, gives no problems.

I set the PII as the Responder and the 486 the Initiator, to test the
network (or vice-versa).

Problem: The 486 freezes in the initiator or responder mode.

Under Win98 no conflict is reported. But the newtork is no present.

Are there any jumpers in this board(Ovislink) that I must modify?

Tanks for any help, Manuel Silva.
