when I try it I get:

I gave this a try even though ifconfig didn't work and I got:

    >route add default gw 192.168.1.1
    SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable

I really don't know what to make of these error messages but it doesn't
seem to recognise any sort of connection at all even though it knows my
card is there because when I type:

    >cardctl status

I get:

    Socket 0:
        no card
    Socket 1:
        5V 16-bit card present
        Function 0: ready, write protect

Any thoughts?

thanks,
Andy
