Can't help with the error messages, never seen them.

I don't know about Bering but the 3c509's work fine with dhclient and
Dachstein. I've a cable setup here and they've worked flawlessly under
various configs.

If your internal network cabling is different to the ext.  you may need
to configure the card to use the correct interface (10base2 or 10
baseT)
To do this you'll need the config program 3c5x9cfg.exe , run under dos. 
I've seen the file on leaf.sourceforge somewhere but a quick google
should find one --- that's if it *is* you're problem :-)
