> The card has options available via the setup programme it comes with

> 	10BASE-T or BNC
> 	10BASE-T or AUI
> 	Twisted Pair - No Link Integrity
> I have such a card set to '10BASE-T or BNC' and it auto-senses which

> For those of you wondering, the support for this card is available in

> card which is not supported.
