Hmmm... Do you know what the ethernet driver is on those cards? If
it's a National Semiconductor 8390 or 83902, it should work. If it's
a 83932, then it won't for sure. It also depends on which Mac you have.
No one has yet to figure out why a few systems (Perf. 600 and LCIII come
to mind) are having problems with slot interrupts.

The older Apple cards (not the intelligent ones that need A/ROSE, or the
SONIC (not Sonic Systems, but the NS83932, which is called the SONIC,
too) and all non-SCSI Asante's that I've tried will work.
