Do they run without whdload? Which demos are these?

You need these:

install a "T" on the Ariadne and one on the media converter. connect the cable to one side of the "T" on Ariadne and the converter. The other open end of the "T"s  get a terminator like this:

Wouldn't it be easier to solder in a new jack and keep using Rj45 than all this? Not sure of the style of jack you need but take a look here:

Thanks for sorting everything out for me; everything is ordered, and I'll keep you posted about the progress. Regarding soldering in a new jack, I appreciate your help and thoughts. I'll absolutely consider desoldering the existing jack and replacing it ("how hard can it be?"). Before I venture into unchartered waters, I'd like to know for sure that the card itself is actually working and that the only thing that needs fixing is the RJ45 socket. That's why I think trying out the BNC jack seems like a good idea. Keep your fingers crossed for me; I might need it! 🙂
