Hi ;D

I've a simple question: Do you know where could I find information about how to write Network Driver (RTL8139) for DOS ? I'd like to add to my OS network communication. Now I try to write my own TCP/IP Stack, but the first thing which I must do is writeing Network Card Driver. I'm interested with help in Assembler, Pascal, Basic and eventually C.

Best Regards
Peter

??? I don't understand one thing: Why do you want to write a driver for DOS, but use it for your OS?

Yes!!! I'd like to write it all because I'd like to have more than one IP address on NIC. When I'll write my own driver then I'll can implement more functions inside it. It will works on my interrupt and so on...

But............I don't know how to start!!! and I'm searching help about network driver. I wrote that I'd like to write RTL8139 Driver because this driver is compatible with many, many network cards including my (Compex RL 10/100 Fast Ethernet Adapter).

Do you know something about it? And maybe you can help me?
