Hi
        We have a lab of 23 PC's just set up. 21 have NE2000 cards
and 2 have DEC etherworks 3 turbo cards.

I used the driver written by Matt Thomas
for the etherworks cards, and it works fine.

I can communicat e between the NE2000 machines, and from any NE2000
to the server (a DEC alpha). Likewise I can communicate
between the 2 etherworks cards, and also from them (2) to the server.

Howver I cannot (even ping) communicate between the etherworks
machines and the NE2000 machines...
any ideas, suggestions would be most appreciated

David
