This is a NatSemi DP83815 chip on a Netgear FA311 board.
You must use the natsemi.c driver, not the tulip.c driver.

The current version is 1.07, with 1.08 scheduled to be released on
Friday.  The v1.08 driver corrects the multicast filter, and fixes up
the "PME" setting on the FA312.

Users with RPM-based system may install this as
rpm -i ftp://ftp.scyld.com/pub/network/netdriver-2.1.src.rpm
cd /usr/src/redhat/
rpm -bb SPECS/netdriver.spec
rpm -i --force RPMS/i386/netdriver*.i386.rpm

As a special case, a precompiled RPM for Red Hat 7.0 running the x86
uniprocessor kernel may be installed by running
  rpm -i ftp://ftp.scyld.com/pub/network/netdrivers-rh70.i386.rpm
