Also it looks to be a 10 Mbps card (writing on the card), so you may have issues with other network equipment being incompatible.

If you can find drivers, those 3Com cards are the bees knees. Modern switches should work fine with it as they'd autonegociate down to 10Mb/s.
Unfortunately I don't think you will find drivers.

Finally tried Tyrian, Doom and Scumm.
My Yamaha based card seems to have developed some issues (very bad sound output probably bad caps).
So tried the Picogus with the new firmware.
The games works great and I really enjoy the sound/music/speech support.
Picogus is a great card now with easy mode switching and the mpu mode available in all configs.
(fixed yamaha board and removed picogus. real opl is 😎)
Thanks Anders!

I have the NASA network at home... in addition to wifi I have connected Mac, HP Win 10, Amiga 4000Tx, Raspberry PI 4, Mac Mini G4 with Morphos and they all work without problems. Yes, I got the idea that unfortunately it is the ethernet card that I had new for many years in a box that is not compatible with Raven. Or there is something in the eneh.stx drivers
I have to try with another card but I'm sorry about this.
Your image shows packets coming and going (from the ifconfig output). Which is good.
Normally I'd expect a
before the default route definition, but since you got no error, that may not be a problem. Worth trying though?
What's your routeing table say? ("route" with no parameters)

This time it's complicated... I've been trying to solve it for days, and I've pulled out war relics but nothing...

This is the result with route.

Are you sure your router is at .254? (sorry if this has been asked/answered, I couldn't find confirmation). Until you can ping it and get a return, everything else is a waste of time.

Yes. This is the configuration on my Mac.

Hi,
So try to ping 192.168.1.77 from your mac, then try to ping 192.168.1.100 from the raven.
If it doesn't work this could be the 10mb/s thing but can't be sure.
You can start a ping from the raven and check if some log appears in Osx. To push further you'll need to sniff the network packets with hub (not switch or use a direct link to a linux machine )and wireshark or tcpdump but it needs some knowledge...
You should also check if logs exist on your router.
EDIT: There's also straight cable and crossed cable for rj45 (i.e. RX<->RX & TX<->TX or RX<->TX & TX<->RX) so I guess your network card doesn't swap automatically between these modes...you need to test with each of these two type of rj45 cable.
For the 10mb/s problem you can plug a 10/100 mb/s switch between the raven and the router or switch depending of your installation...

It's not easy to follow all the discussions, but I've really tried everything, with the various machines I own, crossed cables, ethernet and bnc, various bnc and rj45 cards. I tried changing card slots. Nothing comes out or comes in from Raven...
