Hi Peter,

I  had this problem once with an NE2000 clone. It's probably due to an
incorrect irq setting. The port setting must be correct because dmesg
reports the hardware address. Is it a plug and play card?

If you are  using coax (10-Base T) another possibility might be that your
cable is incorrectly terminated. It's more likely to be the IRQ though. 

Jeff
