I finally found an Asante Mac Con for my SE/30-- This one has the Thick/Thin option. 

I've got the board installed and connected to a Farallon Ether 10T Starlet 8 Hub, and I installed the Asante 5.6.0 drivers and MacTCP 1.1.1.  I have a PC connected to the 10-Base-T side of the hub, and the SE/30 is on the thin coax side.

Problem is -- I can't ping the Mac from the PC.

I've static IP's set on both the SE/30 and the PC. Mac is running 7.1 and the PC is XP.  The PC shows a 10MB connection. There's a Red LED on the MacCon that is on solid all the time.

I run the Asante diagnostics and I can see the card. All the tests pass and see packets being received,  although it's not a lot of packets.

I didn't see any extensions installed for the MacCon, I assume the installer modified the System File.

Don't know why this isn't working-- Am I missing something here?
