I bought a cheapo D-Link DFE-690TXD ethernet card for my 2400c and am having a few problems with it. First of all, it IS a cardbus card and I have done the cardbus mod on the PowerBook. I'm running OS 9.1, the machine will not boot with the card installed, you must insert the card after the OS begins loading (that is, the splash screen with the status bar.) It does show up on the desktop, and the driver installed correctly. It shows up in the TCP/IP "Connect Via" menu as "DFE-690TXD", but will not catch a lease from my DHCP server. The link light is lit but there seems to be no data coming in or going out of the card. Also, when I try to pick the card in the AppleTalk control panel, it gives me the good ol "An error occurred, check your connection" blah blah blah.
So does anyone have a tip on this? I just got this 'book a few days ago, I'm not too familiar with cardbus voodoo ;-)
TIA folks,
Josh
