That's what I did. I've set it to "auto mode" and it works with RJ45 cable.
But I can't verify if "full duplex" worked right. So I changed it under Win 
to "10baseT" for which the 3Com utilities say "full duplex" enabled.

Now I get this for my ADSL NIC.
My first NIC (Ethernet Pro 100+) is for the LAN.

eth1: 3c5x9 at 0x220, 10baseT port, address  00 a0 24 87 4a a6, IRQ 5.

eth1: Setting Rx mode to 1 addresses.
eth1: Setting Rx mode to 2 addresses.
eth1: Setting Rx mode to 3 addresses.

But I am not smarter 'cause there is no full duplex mode mentioned in the 
logs.

Thanks,

BTW Is DMA (channel 6 for example) possible with this hardware/driver?
