Sean,
I think that is close to the ECT2 card I had. Go to Linksys's
website (www.linksys.com) and follow the info for linux there.
There was also a thread on the list some time ago about changing
the order of loading in /etc/rc.d I believe, but can't recall.
I'll search my notes when I get home and hopefully can give you
more info.
Regards,
Keith B.
