NAME

       ne2k-pci-diag - EEPROM setup and diagnostic program for PCI NE2000 ethernet cards.

SYNOPSIS

       ne2k-pci-diag [options]

DESCRIPTION

       ne2k-pci-diag  is  a program that you can use to diagnose problems with PCI NE200 Enternet
       adapters. This include cards with RealTek  RTL8029AS,  Holtak  HT80232  ECON-PCI,  Winbond
       W89c940f and VIA VT86C926 (Amazon) chips.

OPTIONS

       These  programs  follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with
       two dashes (`-').  A summary of options is included below.

       -h, --help
              Show summary of options.

       -V, --version
              Show version of program.

       -v, --verbose
              Verbose mode.

       -q, --quiet
              Be very unverbose.

       -a, --show_all_registers
              Print all registers.

       -# <cardnum>
              Use card number <cardnum>.

       -e, --show-eeprom
              Dump EEPROM contents to stdout.

       -E, --emergency-rewrite
              Re-write a corrupted EEPROM.

       -p, --port-base <port>
              Specify port to use.

       -F, --new-interface <interface>
              Interface number. Options that make sense are: 10baseT,  10base2,  AUI,  100baseTx,
              10baseT-FDX, 100baseTx-FDX, 100baseT4, 100baseFx, 100baseFx-FDX, MII and Autosense.

       -H, --new-hwaddress <address>
              Set card to a new hardware address.

       -m, --show-mii
              Dump MII management registers.

       -R, --reset
              Reset the transceiver.

       -T, --test
              Do register and SRAM test.

       -w, --write-EEPROM <values>
              Write to the EEPROMS with the specified values. Do not use this, if you do not know
              what you do!

       -f, --force-detection
              Try to identify the card, even if it is active.

       -t, --chip-type <card>
              Explicitly set the chip. To get all  valid  numbers,  run  ne2k-pci-diag  with  the
              options '-t -1'.
