[vortex-bug] Need help with the 3c59x driver with kernel 2.4. 0 - 2

I checked and found that the card is up and on the net. Thanks for the help. I still have full-fledged network connectivity, but can see packets (including ARP requests, etc) coming in. Guess I will try from some another node, if it is relevant, will post later to the list.


Thanks
Amit

Also, note the same settings work for others linux PCs(none has the same card on linux) on the same floor and have been confirmed by our IT.

Everything looks OK.  You're sending packets, getting tx completion
interrupts, and packets are being received.

At this point I'd be suspecting the IP layer setup, routing, etc.

You could try running `tcpdump' on that machine, to verify
that packets are coming in.
