Title: Interworks (Socket) I-Card PCMCIA Ethernet Adapter for Amiga 600 & 1200 Computers
Post by: Rabbi on March 06, 2007, 06:59:46 AM
Has anyone out here ever got this card to work under Miami Deluxe?  Or *ANY* TCP/IP stack, for that matter?  

I've got it & its install disk icon says 2.0 although the icard.device in the "sana" drawer is actually at version 1.4.  What's the 2.0 for?  Certainly not the icard.device?

I never got this working in MiamiDX.  Does anyone have this working for themselves?

Does *ANYONE* out here have an I-Card, or is it an expensive paperweight?

I take it that no one uses the I-Card.  Is this correct?

Do a device query under MiamiDX to see if it's working. Did you copy icard.device to Devs:Networks?

Try one of the other PCMCIA Ethernet drivers as well - you might get lucky.

Yes, the file, icard.device is in the Devs:Networks, as well as the Cnet.device and the 3c589.device.

What do you mean by doing a device query?  Could you be more specific?

I bought & am using a 3Com 3C589D-TP Rev:B.  I'm considering getting a CNet.device-compatible PCMCIA Ethernet card, as I've just d/led both tht NetBSD & Debian Linux, because there is no Amiga Linux driver for the 3c589 from what I understand.
