Great networkcard for 8-bit ISA systems

Great networkcard for 8-bit ISA systems! The card works right out of the box. I'm using this card in an Olivetti M240 with the NE2000 drivers and MTCP for FTP. Configuration is straight forward, I'm using PNP in which you can configure the network card with Realtek network card tool.

Easy to use

Works well in my IBM Model 30 - 8086 system.

Used the RSET8019 program to reconfigure the jumperless setup.

Ran PNPPD.com then mTCP DHCP and it connected right up.

Noticeable difference in speed compared to the XIRCOM PE3-10BT adapter I've been using.

Highly recommend this card!

Great network card for ATs as well

I initially purchased this card for my XT class machine but I never had a chance to install it in that computer as the latter was lacking an empty ISA slot. Today I finally decided to install the card in my PC/AT and I'm super happy about it. The documentation was top notch, using the dip switches I could configure the card exactly as I wanted. Everything works flawlessly in combination with mTCP. I can now telnet to BBSes like it's 1984!

Great little card, well built and works well.

Eight bit ISA Ethernet cards are not exactly common anymore so it is great to be able to find a new one that just works. The build quality is great and the documentation is complete.

I tested card this on a PCjr with a home-brew ISA bus adapter. If it works in this configuration, it will work for you. The NE2000 is widely supported, but remember to use the driver referenced in the documentation as normally the NE2000 is expecting a 16 bit slot, not an 8 bit slot.

Works perfectly in my Tandy 1000 SX

I picked up this card so I could use FTP to transfer files to and from my Tandy 1000 instead of having to use floppy disks. Configuration was easy. I opted to use the dip switches and manually configure the card since I have an XT-IDE card in my Tandy configured on IO address 0x300 which was causing a conflict with the configuration utility. IO address 0x280 and IRQ 2 worked perfectly.

Great card, Amazing customer service

The card shipped very fast. The documentation shipped with the card and provided on GitHub is very detailed. My intention is to use this with an XT clone.
