Avoid any 10\100mbit autoswitching hubs. They don't work with Asante cards.

Well. New news. The long and short of it is one chip removed from
board and re-seated and the card seems to be working now (sort of). I
still can't get it to connect to a hub/switch/router and because of
that it complains that it can't see the dns server (specified in the
settings). Anyone got any helpful advice on this?

I've tried the one installer (v5.6.1), it can't even detect the
presence of the card. Maybe I will try the other one too and see if I
can get the OS updated to 7.5.5
