IIRC the settrans command doesn't have an argument -i (The first -i, pfinet has
a -i argument).

I can't find this NIC in the list of supported hardware for gnumach 1.3 (the
version you are using). This list can be found in i386/README-Drivers in the
gnumach-1.3.tar.gz tarball that can be downloaded from hurd.gnu.org.
An alternative is using OSKIT-Mach. It uses OSKIT for drivers and many linux
2.4 drivers are included with OSKIT. An updated OSKIT (with more drivers than
the OSKIT in debian) can be found on savannah.gnu.org. After installing OSKIT
you can build OSKIT-Mach, which can be downloaded from hurd.gnu.org (it is also
known as gnumach 1.9). The default console on OSKIt-Mach sucks, but there is an
alternative in the Hurd, just search in the mailinglist archives of bug-hurd
how to use this console.
Hopefully OSKIT-Mach will be in Debian soon :)
Thanks,
Marco
