Yes. Also, Nathan, if your card has multiple media (twisted pair, coax
and/or AUI -- some of those cards have all three instead of only tp), you
have to set it to use the appropriate one. The DOS util does this also. I
had the same problem, and David Carter figured it out for me back when I
was a newbie. :)
