just wanted to thank you all for this thread and particularly the message I quoted. I tried setting up my netgear fa411 with cnet.device instead of cnet16.device and obviously failing at it until I stumbled across this message. It saved me and got my amiga connected to my network |

How do you determine what chipset a card has? I have spent A LOT of time searching and googling, but I can not find this information. My card says that it is a "Hawking Technologies 10/100 Dual Speed Fast Ethernet PC Card". System Info says that it is an abocom card (I am assuming that hawking used their chipset as happens quite often). From the Abocom web site, I found the FE 1500 which matches the description and FCC ID of my card. From system info, I have also determined that it uses a tx100nd5.sys as a driver and the name listed is le100.
Will this card work? Also the site says that it is a PCMCIA Type II. Is the A600 a type II? Thanks. Last edited by JDunlap; 26 January 2008 at 06:03. |

The FE1500 is NE2000 compatible, so you should be able to use that driver.
Type II refers to the thickness. It will fit your Amiga. |

Yes, it can be very hard finding the relevant info regarding a card you're thinking of.
Your best bets are: Searching this forum for known working models. Type pcmcia into the search on Aminet - once downloaded the readme's that come with the drivers contain a fair list of what models actually work. That way no frustration over WTF is the chip-set in this card..? Then off to the likes of fleaBay & search by model (number) & make sure it IS the exact same card - some manufacturers changed chipsets during the life of their card. I'd also recommend being patient & keeping an eye on a few candidates - cards can sell anywhere from a few pence to £50+ depending on popularity & how mad the bidding has gone. (some of these cards are useful for 'naughty behavior' so command quite a premuim) Last edited by Charlie; 26 January 2008 at 11:55. |

Well, finally got around to installing AmiTCP on my A600. (I had to install ClassicWB GAAE first )
Unfortunately, I can not get the card to work, so maybe I am off to EBay. I tried both cnet and cnet16, and neither worked. Here is what card_info says about my card, can anyone tell anything from it? Quote:
Thanks. |

Even a no-functional card appears on card_info. Once I bought one who simply refuses to connect on my 1200, but work flawlessly on a peecee laptop. |

Thanks, but I now have a 3C589. (Actually, I have about six of them. Several without dongles, though.)

Need drivers
Hi guys,
I have a Xircom CEM56-100 PCMCIA ethernet card, can anyone tell me if this card works with my A1200 and what drivers I need? Thanks |

Hello everybody, i recently bought Thomson SpeedTouch 110 Wireless PCMCIA card. It is stated in prism2 documentation, that it should work. System PrepCard report it as Agere chipset. I can`t get this to work, can you give me step-by step tutorial?
i`m using ClassicWB (or pure, stock 3.1), installing prism2 drivers and nothing. even led power on the card is not lit after insterting it to the PCMCIA slot. |

Hello prart,
did you succeed in networking with speedtouch 110? |

Hi,
With the FA411 and a TCP/IP Stack would i require an 030 or above rather than just using the onboard 020 in the A1200? Also are their any solutions for the A2000? I have an 060/50 in that and have always thought about getting say an Adrianne? First post on here, first of many regards, |

Welcome to EAB, mate.
Yes, there are other network solutions for the A2000. An A2286 bridgeboard and an ISA NIC can sort the things for you (expensive), the aforementioned Ariadne and some other ancient solutions combined with external adaptors (netBEUI to 10baseTX, among others). |

I have successfully tested a Z-COM XI-325 wireless card using prism2.device. It seems to hang the machine if you configure it incorrectly (unlike the Netgear MA401), but it works fine if you have it set up right.

It has worked in the A1200 it came with. (See link for more details.) If that answers the question, dunno

Since it has worked in an Amiga and my DWL-650 doesn't look like the pic you posted in my other thread, we can assume that Ethernet cards with the same model number can come in both versions. Mine doesn't have the bump strip, and looks totally different (looks like the wifi card on Amigakit).
