Check if the card is really connected to the ethernet. Dont use 4 for an IRQ since that is the COM1/3 port. Try using 10 for the IRQ it works real well. Also try to run your clone card in Western Digital mode if it is an addtron or something like it. The NE2000 mode has a ring buffer that is too small. Tim
