Okay, but I think my problem is even a bit more basic than that.  Where can
I find the drivers for the 3c905 card.  My conf is using the 3c509 driver.
Does that matter?  If it doesn't, is the problem that my card is trying to
run at 100Mbps (as has been suggested to me)?  If so, how do I set that to
10Mbps instead?
Once again, I seriously thank anyone who can help me with this as I really
do not want to go through the whole procedure of installing another card and
going through my campus' routine to get an IP address..  THANKS!  :)
