I suspect this may well be the problem. I thought it
was this before but then I thought there was an IRQ
conflict. Anyway, now I have managed to get both
network cards working fine (they both share IRQ10, but
I have been told that shoul dbe fine for PCI cards),
and dmesg gives no problems when ifconfig them.

At the moment it seems that it simply isnt connecting,
so I am just waiting for the MAC address to go through
the system so I can connect.

I will inform you of my progress and problems. :D
