[NTLK] NetGear MR814 with Wired Connection

I am having a problem connecting my Newt to the Internet. I am going
wireless at home. I have received my router (a NetGear MR814) and am
awaiting delivery of my network card (an Orinoco Silver).
In the meantime, I am trying to connect using the wired network card that I
currently have in my Newton. The card is a 3Com 3C589D, and worked
perfectly on AppleTalk using just a hub to connect to my PowerBook. (The
Newt has also successfully worked connecting to the Internet via my cell
phone).
Now, with the router installed, I cannot connect to NCU via AppleTalk, and I
cannot connect to the Internet using either DHCP or manual settings. I know
that this list has had a lot of messages about successfully using the
NetGear router with the Orinoco card on the Newt, but has anyone
successfully set up a wired connection with this router?

Eric
