I ran one of those Linksys cards as NE2000 with IRQ 11 and 0x200.  It
worked fine.  Perhaps you have a bad card, a hardware conflict,  or
some other incompatibiliy.

I'm not using the Linksys card anymore because I found SMC Ultra 16's
at auction for an incredible price, and I have more than 100 SMC cards
now.  Enough to plant my web farm!
