Question: RBEM56G-100 & Red Hat 6.2 

Forum: Xircom PCMCIA Ethernet Adapter Issues
Date: 2000, May 03
From: Marco A. Calamari marcoc

I'm trying to use a Xircom Cardbus ethernet 10/100+modem 56 (RBEM56G-100) with an Acer Travelmate 515TE and RedHat 6.2 (kernel 2.2.14)

The card self initialize with tulip_ce, and seems to work, autoselecting irq2 & io200.

Ifconfig show hardware address and (using promiscuos mode, as suggested by another message here) I can see the packet count rise.

The problem is that ping doesn't work, and all packet read are
 dropped; packet written give an error.

I suspected that the card is working at 100Mb, and all my network is 10Mb, but if connect to a 100Mb port the amber light detect the change, bu the situation (dropped all packet) doesn't change

I updated firmware to 2.66, but without any change.

Also using xirc2ps_cs give no change

Any idea ? Thanks a lot for your time.

Have a good day. Marco
