Re: LG LPNCII PCMCIA (Rtl-8139)- cannot even ping

Hi!
I've got HP OmniBook 5700CTX (P166MMX) with 2.4.20 kernel and I try to use 10/100Mbps Realport PC Card LG LPNCII-10/100 (Cardbus). This card is Realtek RTL-8139 chip based. I use yenta_socket and 8139too module (8139cp does not work). The problem is that I can load the modules, ifconfig the card, but I can't even ping my not-mobile computer (there is Intel EtherExpress PRO/10+ ISA - I use eepro module and everything looks OK). I'm sure that cable and both cards are fine, because if I run on the laptop Win98 I can ping each other. 
I have tried several things but nothing works :-(.

Have you got any idea??


i'm having the same problems with 3 different network cards 2 rtl8139
and 1 eepro100 on a 2.4.18-bf24. especially with those NETDEV WATCHDOG:
eth0 timed out :(
i set up a direct connection to a working laptop and saw on etherereal
that there's arp requests going out of all these cards, but nothing on
return. the intel card seems to advertise itself with a mac adress
00:00:00:etc

at least for the intel card theres a driver
http://www.intel.com/support/network/adapter/1000/linux/e100.htm
but it doesn't seem to work with me. :(
and there seems to be a kernel patch from redhat. which is what i'm
going to try after i've tried a 2.6.0 kernel image

best luck ;)

May be these infos will help:

non-mobile computer IP: 192.168.0.1
I know there are lot of stuff below, but I don't know where to search for the hint even :-(
