Description

If adding as interface lan1, loads OK, tcpip address assigned OK, but only visible/pingable from lan0. All other machines on the network can't see it.

If changing interface for lan0, loads OK and tcpip address assigned OK, but no functionality. Netbios and TCP/IP both dont work..

Replying to dazarewicz:

Insufficient information. Please provide exact NIC identification (ie. from PCI command)

Sorry, ran PCI and realized that an unused onboard Intel NIC 10/100 (10C0) was grabbing the driver first. Installed 2 instances and now 10D3 loads OK and visible on the network.

However, unable to disable the onboard NIC in the BIOS and so would need to be able to specify bus/slot in order to replace it as lan0, but according to README, driver cannot be configured for specific slot, unless it isn't documented.....

Any ideas?

Do you still have 2 E1000E supported adapters installed?
