Are you working under Mac or Windows? I have a 3CXE589ET and DHCP works
great, why do you need to reserve an IP address?

I just got a new 3Com 3C589C card for my 2100 Newton and the drivers for it.
I installed the card and the drivers and have been able to connect to NCU
with no problem, but I want to do more. I want to get on the internet with
my Newton, but my network is DHCP based. I think I can get around this by
telling the DHCP server that a specific IP address is taken, but I need to
know the hardware MAC address for the card. Does any one know how I can do
this?. Has any one else got the newtons on to the internet under similer
condictions?
