I'm trying to get a Megahertz X-jack ethernet card working. PAO recognises
the card and sets it up. The symptoms are as follows:

1. Most of the time I can only reach hosts on the local segment. I have
   verified that everything is correct in ifconfig and I do have a 
   default route setup.

2. When telneting to another host it is very slow. FTPing is impossible.

3. When I ping another site it starts out at about 1900ms ping times
   and each time it sends a ping the ping time decrements ~10ms. When
   it gets down to 10ms it then cycles back to ~1000ms.

64 bytes from 192.187.130.254: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=1840.543
64 bytes from 192.187.130.254: icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=1830.346
64 bytes from 192.187.130.254: icmp_seq=2 ttl=255 time=1820.230
64 bytes from 192.187.130.254: icmp_seq=3 ttl=255 time=1810.360
64 bytes from 192.187.130.254: icmp_seq=4 ttl=255 time=1800.172
64 bytes from 192.187.130.254: icmp_seq=5 ttl=255 time=1790.323

4. I cannot ping the laptop from any other host.

5. Sometimes the card will totally stop sending. When this happens
   the flag 'OACTIVE' shows up in ifconfig. This usually happens 
   when I try to send or receive larger amounts of data.

Here's what ifconfig says"

sn0: flags=8843(UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST) mtu 1500
	inet 192.187.130.193 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.187.130.255
	ether 00:00:86:18:f7:85

I'm using the default pccard.conf setting for the card.

io	0x240-0x2e0 0x300-0x360
irq	10 11
memory	0xc0000	96k


Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
