I have a PC card for a powerbook 1400c that has a dongle with both ethernet and 56k. I need to use ethernet. This worked before I reformatted the PB. Now I need the drivers. I tried almost everything on that side and none of them are drivers. I've seen these cards ALL over the place and they seem popular, but no drivers anywhere.

The card reads:

Global Village Communication
56Kbps modem and 10Base-T Ethernet adapter PC Card

Any ideas?

If your device is the platinum pro, download the links there and install them. Then, do the normal setup stuff, such as setting AppleTalk to Ethernet (or something close to it), then TCP/IP Control Panel to Ethernet. After that, try getting on the internet. Any success? If not, I'll look further into the driver issue. I have a Platinum Pro card on a 1400c for a a few days more and I'll see what is on the computer (but I'm not at home and can't check it now).

Thanks, I tried those all, but none of them are an actual driver. They are all updates to something existing or firmware upgrades. I someone installed the actual global village fax stuff, but that wasn't the driver either. I need some help :(
