| Which SE Ethernet card do I have? | |
| Posted by: Hopfenholz on 2021-01-26 11:10:25 Now that I have my SE booting again (yay!) I'd like to connect it to my Ethernet network. I have one of these:   2nd pic is the little daughter card that attaches to the back of the SE. Anyone know what it is and where I might find drivers for it? I'm running System 6.0.8. Cheers, Joel | |

| Posted by: Bolle on 2021-01-26 23:41:48 Doesn't look like Asanté at all but it's worth trying their drivers anyways. DP839** controllers are all register compatible. If they mapped it into the same address space as Asanté cards then their driver will work. | |

In hindsight, my Google game is a bit weak, everything I looked for regarding "StNic" or "ST-NIC" pointed to Asanté, but apparently it's because they made a NuBus card dubbed that, after the chipset. There is also a Dayna "StNic" card, but not for the SE. Though the silkscreen font on this card does look like what Dayna used. | |
