HI Bill, in order to try to break this down to be at the point where you
can get a handle arround it, I would sugest looking at one of the
"dumber" cards like the Old NE2000 card that used to come with Novel
Netware.

THis page decribes a driver for it:

this PDF page shows a block diagram of an NE2000 type card.

Note that the software gets to be more important than the hardware.
