Is your card actually a WD or an SMC? I have an SMC (should be exactly
the same) set up the same way... BSD recognzed it, and I could even ftp
to wuarchive to get the bindist.  But I get an error whenever I try to
actually GET anything (netin: bad address)... Maybe our problems have
the same cause...
