Hello All,
Some time ago (years actually) I encountered an article named the '25$ webserver'. It was about connecting a microcontroller to an NE2000 compatible ISA network card.
Just recently I thought it would be a nice project to connect a RTL8019as NIC to an Atmel Mega32 microcontroller and using assembly as the language-of-choice. A further googling found me a site using BasCom, from which I learned how to initialize as well as how to read from & write to the NIC.
But all of the PDF documentation in regard to that NIC seemed to be incomplete, and the only way I could download some (supposedly!) more specific information from the company itself was to agree to a NDA (non-disclosure agreement), which I, as a hobbyist, did not wish to do.
My question is therefore : does anyone know of where to get specific info in regard to that NIC *without* having to sell my soul ?
