I guess if no one on the list wants to give/sell me one then I better bid on it and see what's up with my SE/30.
I'd rather have a known good one though. Maybe I should find another SE/30, there's one on Ebay with network card for like $99 plus shipping. Just running out of money for vintage stuff this month (read, my wife is going to be pissed off).

Sterling, I'm almost sure that this is a cabletron card http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=310161399127, (The asante should have a pass through PDS) (It could be a Farallon card) Does anyone no for sure? I have one that came with I computer that I got for parts but I've never tried to use it. I found the drivers on line for the cabletron and can e-mail them to you, if it turns out to be a cabletron, you can probably find the Farallon drivers too.

I have been moving so I haven't have time to play with my SE/30 but when I do I'll try it and let the group know how it went.

If you want to try once again here are a few pointers to places I found information that made my installations work the first time. 1) Installation of OS 7.5.5 according to this recipe: http://www.fenestrated.net/~macman/755/ <http://www.fenestrated.net/%7Emacman/755/> 2) Here is where I found the switch configuration info for the Asante card: http://stason.org/TULARC/pc/network-cards/netoth_1.html 3) Note the "Slot Address" jumper table at the Stason site. Here is the secret decoder for which "Slot" to assign. Info is about 3/4 of the way down the page, in the "SE/30 PDS slot addresses" table: http://home.earthlink.net/~gamba2/se30_pds_multiple.html <http://home.earthlink.net/%7Egamba2/se30_pds_multiple.html> 4, 5) Asante cards for the SE/30 are Apple driver compatible, so I used Apple 1.5.1 Ethernet card drivers, if I recall correctly, I selected nubus adapter when the choice comes up. First time the installation won't work because of a can't remove file error. The ? [can't remember name]? file can't be replaced. Use the unhide tools to find and remove the ?[can't remember name]? file named by the installer in either the Control Panel or Extension folder then re-run the installer: http://www.macdrivermuseum.net/network.html http://www.tempel.org/mac/#UnhideTools I'd ignore item 1 at first and see if you can't make the card work following the other tips first. But, do read the instructions for a 7.5.5 installation and see if you don't want to do it anyway. Hope this finds and fixes a configuration problem for you--frustrating but cheaper if your cars is actually good.
