I've just seen the ad for getting these cards at $19/29 respectively (limited 2
cards per customer).
Would they both work with the .99p15 and above kernels, since they are NE2000
clones?  Likewise,
since the AE-200JL is software configurable vs the AE-200LC's hardware
jumpered, is there a utility
to configure it (or others that are software configurable)?

thanks

Is this ADDTRON or ACCTON?  I got a pair of their cards is a two-fer
deal exactly as you described.  One is now in the Linux box and
running great, the other is in a MS-DOS box, talking to its more
fortunate colleague.  <grin>

The Accton dox are a little on the short side but they do include a
host of drivers, at least in the demo kits.  I talked to their tech
support number once; nothing great, nothing awful.

Tyr to keep it under 78 character please. Real head to edit otherwise.

They most definitely work.I get upwards to 500 kB/sec with them.

Get the jumpered ones. You won't regret it.

Can you please post a phone number and the name of the company selling
these?  Also, is it 8-bit or 16-bit?
