> Ideally, it would be better if we had an NE2000 Ethernet card driver; > I once bought an NE2000-compatible 8-bit ISA card but the 8086 PC I If it was 8bit it was not NE2000 compatible but would be NE1000 compatible. It is possible to drive some NE2K clones in 8bit slots and there is a special DOS packet driver for it, but a standard NE2000 driver won't work. A modified 3C509 driver also works with some PC/XT class hardware.
