I'm having an odd problem with a Trendnet TE100-PCIWN card,
and I'm hoping for some help.

Basically, the card refuses basically seems to refuse to receive any
packets.  I'm mystified.  I've tried the 1.07 driver
(this is a stock RH 6.2 on i386).  I've tried the 1.10 driver.  The
diag tools don't report any obvious problems (but that could
be operator ignorance).

I'm attaching the results of loading it with debug on,
bringing up the interface, and failing to ping a locally
attached computer.

I appreciate any help.
