Hmmm, sounds like you have interrupt problems on the laptop.  I'm
sending this mail with an 'an' card right now and it works w/o a
hitch.  I can dhclient an address, or set one manually.  It does take
it about a second to configure the network in either case.  I've used
both the 340 and the 350 cards with this laptop in recent memory.

As for your 509B card, I have no clue.
