This page is not a support page for windows computers

People having problems with win* systems are responsibel for it themself. There is no support from me for their problems. The only thing I can tell them is to replace the win* system with a real operating system. Examples herefor would be a BSD like NetBSD or one of the Linux - distributions like Debian or RedHat (but not Suse).

This page should give you an overview of PCMCIA Cards tested on the native 16 bit PCMCIA-Slot of an AMIGA A1200 or A600.
This list isn't ment to be complete and comes with no warranty!
If you have tested a card (successfully or not) that is not (completely/correctly) listed here please mail me a short report. It should contain a short list with the used software and hardware (and needed patches/reworks) and detailed informatin about the card (manufacturer, product, type, connectors, MAC, Webpage (URL) with data,...).
Please send me Data about non-network PCMCIA Cards for the Amiga as well. And of course I'm also interested in W-LAN Cards.
Regarding the 100 MBit Ethernet cards you could generally say that they stay far away from the theoretical maximum speed and in practice only reach about 11 MBit. This limitation is not caused by the Amiga. But often they use up less CPU power than comparable 10 MBit cards and usually require the cnet16.device.

NEWS:

06.09.14: work in progress for 100 MBit cards for the amiga linux kernel version 3.16.1.
13.08.07: new CNet Device version 1.9 has been released
15.01.06: patch for 100 MBit cards for amiga linux kernel version 2.6.8.
03.11.05: patch for 100 MBit cards for amiga linux kernel version 2.4.20.
13.09.05: CNet Device version 1.9b1 has been released
work on NetBSD patches unfortunately hasn't started yet.

(1) = Freezes System during plug in time
(2) = reported to work as well as reported not to work
(3) = Gayle-Reset-fix required
(4) = according to the cnet device compatibility list
(5) = not recognized as ethernet card by driver
(6) = AmigaOS: requires cnet16.device (V1.9b1) - Linux: requires kernel patches mentioned ahead - NetBSD: missing software support
(7) = AmigaOS: Card-Reset or equivalent required; some cards need a reset time up to 3 seconds - Linux: 100 MBit patches for the linux kernels introduce a card reset every time the kernel module is loaded.
(8) = AmigaOS: problems with MAC address, currently there is only support for one device per network

WLan-Cards

Currently only cards with Prism Chipset are supported.
