Full Version: What network cards work?
Can some of you list network cards that you have working (native), I can't seem to get mine to show up so I'll go pick one up at the store.
Broadcom 57xx Onboard NIC - DIDN'T WORK
3Com 3C19250 USB NIC - DIDN'T WORK

i think my 905c croaked.... it's not getting power from the bus... doesn't matter which slot... it does seem to get power at weird angles while inserting it but once fully seated... no juice

My cheap Realtek network card works fine in native!
My ADMtek AN983 based card does not work. (It's the cheap networkeverywhere ethernet card Walmart sells).
my 3COM 3C940 doesnt work
Realtek 8139 pci NIC work in native mode!
My Intel Pro/100 works perfectly. OSX thinks it's "Built-in Ethernet." Hah!
Realtek RTL8139 Family PCI Fast Ethernet NIC - Works
SiS 900 NOT WORKING
I owuld assume intel chipsets have more of a chance of working (natively). So any hardware built in onboard would be more likely. Im about to install on my dell 700m, *crosses fingers*.
although since a 57xx broadcom series card didnt work. i worry about my "broadcom 440x integrated controller.... brb..

Realtek, say a system that dont support em. They are cheap, they are good, and the most systems support em right out the box!
Since the VMWare built-in ethernet drivers do not work, I am wondering if anyone had success using external USB ethernet cards with VMWare? I am not going to do a native install and would like to continue to use VMWare, but lack of network makes it difficult.
My other thought was to use the serial ports+ppp to do some kind of loopback remote access to my host OS. Haven't tried that yet, but I really do want to get this up and going.

Broadcom 5701 *should* work. It's listed in the supported network cards from xplOdenet.com Have you actually tried and confirmed it does not? According to that site, ONLY the following should work:
3COM 3C90x
Broadcom 440x
Broadcom 5701
Intel 8254x
Intel 8255x
Realtek 8139
Realtek 8169
And also those supported by the below:
BMacEthernet
DP83816Ethernet
GMACEthernet
DEC21x4Ethernet
-----
I have OS X running in VMWare, but with no net, it's kind of useless. I have a P4 3.2 w/ SSE3 Hyperthreading and whatnot, on an Intel 915 chipset w/ 900 Graphics card. The network card is Broadcom 57xx GigaFast ethernet. If it doesn't work, though, I won't bother with a native install. If it *does*, it sounds like I'm in great shape.
at least two people (me included) have broadcom bc5705 gigabit onboard (msi k8t800 k8t master2 far dual-opteron mobo) and it isn't working.
My Broadcom NetLink Gigabit Controller (BCM5788M) does not work.

Intel PRO/1000CT (ASSUS P4C800E-Deluxe) also works. *Yes*, I am running native. I haven't enabled the onboard sound yet (that's next).

VMWare works with a serial port / PPP connection. I used a demo of Virtual Serial Port Driver XP v5 to create a pair of serial ports. I bound one of them to Incoming Connections, no flow control, 115200. Allow directly connected users to connect without a password, give it a pair of IP addresses under TCP/IP config.
The other serial port I bound to the Virtual Machine. Within OSX select the Null Modem at 115200 as your modem, unselect compression and wait for dial tone. Under PPP Options, select use terminal window. Click Connect. When the terminal window appears, type in CLIENTCLIENT and hit enter (you won't see anything in the window as you type). The XP side should respond with CLIENTSERVER. Click connect. If all goes well you'll be connected via PPP.
Those of you using Native mode can probably do the same thing with a null modem cable.
There's some hacks you can do to your mdmhayes.inf to prevent needing to type in CLIENTCLIENT manually:

We do the same trick for directly connected TiVos, should work fine here too.

I just bought a new Realtek 8169 card (Compusa)
I install boot up and have a connection. All of a sudden I get the Restart screen. I reboot and when I go back I have 9 PCI3 Slot Realtek cards and I cannot get connected once again. Is there a fix for this?
Thank you

All linksys cards do not work 
. but that is expected, as linksys is a PC only card manufacturer. Looks like I need to shell out on a Realtek card. Does anyone know if there are any Realtek's that support Ubuntu 5.04, windows, and OSX86? Cause networking is essential in Linux

I have Dell Optiplex GX280
please, if someone can remove that card from supported list, because IT DOES NOT WORK, and I have tried virtualy anything possible to make it work...

SMC 1211TX is a Realtek 8139 Compatible Card, so Mac OS X recognize it as RTL8139
My broadcom 57XX onboard does not work, interestingly it works fine under Darwin 8.0.1. When I boot in single user verbose mode it complains about not being able to get an interrupt
got it working by disabling plug'n'play OS in my bios - also fixed onboard ac97 sound.

I have tried the following cards with no success:
Cheapo PC Club Card - Realtek RTL8139D
3COM 3C905C-TXM - Broadcom 5904
3COM 3C90B-TX-NM - Lucent Chipset
Asanta Tech - DEC 21140-AE
I thought the Realtek and the 3COM's would just come up, but they dont. Maybe I am missing something.

This sounds great, but I haven't got it working 
Windows part all worked out, but how do I setup a Null Modem PPP connection in OSX? System Preferences / Network just shows a non-working 'Built in Ethernet', trying to add a ISP connection fails.

Intel 82557 10/100 SHOULD work, but I have been unable to in all my efforts.
PCI 3Com 3C905C-TXM NIC (Broadcom 5904 chipset)
That's what I have, and they are quite common. Also, you may look into something with a "digital" chipset. I haven't tried my DLink (w/ digital chipset) in the OSx86 box yet, but it's a hybrid card that works in PCs and Apple hardware natively.

Cool thanks that worked... well at least with one on my Network cards =P
It worked great with my Linksys LNE100TX card.
But it didn't work with the NVidia nForce Network built into my motherboard and it didn't work with my Belkin Wireless G Network Card.
Also it seem to have broken Safari, It uses to start before I added Tulip but now it won't. =/
Accton EN1017 works...however..with weird problems....i can like numerous PCI Ethernet detected and a built-in ethernet option in networks lol...
I got some erros of file not found in the installation is that normal?

Same setup here and the same problem. Tried the Tulip kext also, to no avail.
This is what I'm getting at installation
Is this normal? I don't think so it says some files don't exist
What have I done wrong, I really need some help here! thanks
