I'll try to help with this one.
Please reply and include your routing settings, ifconfig output, and any
options you are passing to the drivers (if any). Also, please make sure
you upgraded pcmcia-cs and other things, as documented in
/usr/src/linux/Documenation/Changes.
And the file that contains the IP address, etc., for the NIC. (In RedHat I
would be referring to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-<if>. I don't
know about Debian.)
