If you suspect the driver, do this:
-Remove any and all Ethernet drivers you have installed (as well as the
cards)
-Reset the Newton (button on the back)
-Install the Farallon Ethernet driver
-Reset
-Install the 3comaddon.pkg patch
-Reset
-Insert your 3c589C
And install the drivers on the internal store as well.
-60088 doesn't necessarially mean that the Newt can't *find* a DHCP
server, but merely that the request failed. What are you using as a DHCP
server? Router, Win2k Connection Sharing? Is it properly configured?
