I have tried the FA411 card with Miami two times now and it just locks up the computer when I try to go online with or without CardPatch.

The reason for this is that cnet.device doesnt seem to be totally buddy with the ASIX AX88790-chipset which is used in the FA411 card. The AX88790-chipset is supposed to be "almost" NE2000 compatible, but there seem to be some small difference which gives this result. I think this is the reason why this chipset got a separate driver in linux. This driver uses most of the sourcecode for the standard DS8390-chipset (NE2000) (correct me if I am wrong), but some parts are a bit different.
