There really are 16 bit 10/100 cards that work with the 1400. The D-Link
DFE-650TX works, and even has a special note for users of 1400 and 5300
users. :-) Now, if only I could find one this week..... :-)

What 3Com card did you use? Do you still have it or the drivers for it? I
have a 3Com that doesn't work--or at least that I couldn't find any drivers
for on the internet. It's a 3C562D/3C563D ethernet/modem card. :-(
