Re: Netgear FA510 trouble
G'Day !
I'm forwarding this to the debian-laptop list so the "real" experts can chime in
as neccessary ... ;-)
I had the same problem with my D-Link DFE-650 NIC card (slightly different
symptoms, but still a Tx message in dmesg). I stopped working on the problem,
so I don't have a final solution, but I did upgrade by kernel to 2.2.17 and
upgraded by PCMCIA package. This got my modem working anyway ....
I'll play with it some more sometime this week and see if I can get a fix posted
to the list ... but I would not hold your breath waiting.
BTW which kernel and PCMCIA versions are you using ? Did you check out the
Netgear web site ?
cheers,

dmsg conatins lines like (they seem to be generated after each
unsuccessful ping):
eth0: Tx hung, 16 vs. 0.
The route table is the same on both computers in the network:
Destination Gateway Denmask Flags Metric Ref Use IFace
192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
DNS is not the problem since pinging by number doesn't work. The
contents of my hosts file are:
127.0.0.1 ibm550.klee ibm550
localhost
192.168.0.1 amd300.klee amd300
192.168.0.2 amd300w95.klee amd300w95
192.168.0.3 p90.klee p90
192.168.0.4 p90w95.klee p90w95
192.168.0.5 ibm550.klee ibm550
192.168.0.6 ibm550w2k.klee ibm550w2k
192.168.0.7 mh233.klee mh233
192.168.0.8 mh233w95.klee mh233w95
192.168.0.9 liteline266.klee liteline266
192.168.0.10 liteline266w95.klee liteline266w95
BTW, connecting to mh233 and liteline266 via PLIP works. However, I
haven't tested whether I can access amd300 (that's the machine I am
trying to ping) via PLIP.
