TO all: Thanks again to all who have responded to this request of mine. While following all your tips and suggestions, I also decided to drop by the BayNetworks website (http://NETGEAR.baynetworks.com) and selected the FA310TX Drivers section. For ver4.0 and higher, BayNetworks is providing a Linu

This is a Tulip-compatible card. The origional card was actually a DECchip Tulip, but the one with the Netgear logo is a Tulip clone. I don't know if it's as good as the DECchip one, but I have gotten it to talk to a network, using both kernel 2.0.34 and 2.1.125 Unfortunately, I haven't been able

Yo- I have an older 310tx with the Digital 21140 AE chip which works great. I also noticed that Netgear decided to remove the Digital 21140 (Tulip) chip from their more recent models. If you have a 310tx card that says "NETGEAR" on the chip try and take it back. If you look hard enough you can s
