With PCMCIA cards, this is not a 100% guarantee that everything is fine.
It's normal for the drivers to load without a card being detected.

I recommend you use static IPs until you get everything sorted out. It's
easier to find the details in the traces.

Let do the drill. Post copies of

\config.sys
\startup.cmd (if you have one)
\ibmcom\lantran.log
\ibmcom\protocol.ini
\ibmcom\macs\yournic.nif (yournic is the name of your nic's nif)
\ibmlan\ibmlan.ini (if you have LAN networking installed)
\mptn\bin\setup.cmd
\mptn\etc\dhcpcd.cfg
\mptn\etc\resolv*

and we will see what to do next.

You should also give iptrace a try

If you see packets going out and nothing coming back, you most likely have
an IRQ problem. NICs typically do not need an IRQ to transmit, but they
are deaf without one.
