Can a IIsi Asante MacCon used for SE/30?

I have taken a Asante MacCon PDS card from a IIsi machine and would like to know if I can put it into a SE/30 because they are both PDS.  The problem is that I cannot get the card working after configuring IP stuff from MacTCP/Control Panel.  I have installed Asanté 5.1.2 on my SE/30 running System 7.5 but not sure if it has the right driver.  But the LED light on its extension plane is always off and my switch cannot see the Ethernet connection.  TattleTech can see the card as "MacCon 30si" which means this card is for both SE/30 and IIsi?

I use them in both of my SE/30s without any Asante software. Do you need to pull the Math coprocessor chip in order for it to work?

I think the coprocessor is optional as saw in another thread.  But it's good that u confirmed it can be used in SE/30 w/o problem.

I had run its testing suite where it passed both memory and NIC tests.  It failed at the loopback.

Anything else I can try to make it works?
