Reply With Quoteergghh... could we at least get the model ? that would help a lot.
i have an old d-link nic, dont have a box or manual left over from it that could explain something like the module, but anyone know how i would go about getting the modulename for it? thanks

Oh oh.. This does not look good, since there are _a lot_ of D-link nics out there.. and they all use different modules..i have an old d-link nic, dont have a box or manual left over from it that could explain something like the module, but anyone know how i would go about getting the modulename for it? thanks
Well OK here it goes, the ones I've playd with..
D-link DFE-220 used to have a non working module, now it's part of the kernel and that module should work.
D-link DFE-530tx Uses a module fetched from D-links server (ftp://www.d-link.co.uk)
D-link DFE-538tx Uses the the tulip module, it used to require a module of its own, but not with the latest kernels.
D-link DFE-538tx+ Uses the rtl8139_too module. (Or is it called rtl8139 now, can't remember)
D-link DFE-660tx Uses the tulip module
Oh and by the way, there should be a fair chance at getting a linux_driver.tgz from the mentioned ftp URL, if you happen to have an unmentioned NIC.
If you don't know the model, you can look up the chip and see if you can get the clue or on the borad itself will have some kind of identification. Then you can reference with DLink site or post it here ( prefer with pictures also ) so that we can help you look for it.
Just saying an old NIC won't help you out here. We don't work for DLink as well as we don't pocess extreme powers to see what NIC you have ( either old or new ).
my dlink says its the DFE-530TX on the card, ill check out that link from you redhead
IIRC, DFE-530tx uses Tulip driver ...
Actually i think it uses the via-rhine driver, at least thats what the documentation said for the dfe-530tx off their site.IIRC, DFE-530tx uses Tulip driver ...
