Unable to locate FENI2.3.sit.hqx Farallon Ethernet Network Installer for LC PDS

[aperezbios]

Hi folks,

I have an LC PDS Ethernet card and am unable to find a functioning link anywhere on the Internet for 'FENI2.3.sit.hqx', which I believe is the driver I need for this card.

The URL at http://vintageapple.org/macdrivers/nic/FENI2.3.sit.hqx is bad, and returns a zero byte file. It also seems bad on all of the Vintage Mac Driver mirrors I've stumbled across as well.

I have an actual floppy disk for a Farallon Ethernet Network card.  Can you take a photo and upload the card here?  If it is the same as mine I can just make a new image file for you using the actual disk  Or if you just want to wing it and try anyways without pulling the card out of your system we can do that too.  The card/disk combo I have is this setup:

Let me know, and I can probably image the disk for you tomorrow evening.

Yep, that's what I need. Thanks!

The cards in that link are cheap enough its best to order a couple spares just to have. Never know when lightning is gonna come through and ZAP.

I actually got 3 of them.  1 for the Mystic, 1 for LC520, and 1 as a spare.  I figure it's better to spend $12 now and not ever need it, than to need it a year and a half from now and all that NOS to be gone, causing the prices to hop back up to $50 or more.  And it is a small part that is ridiculously easy to store

aperezbios, send me a PM with your email address and I can email you both of the files... I used my SE/30 to make an image with Disk Copy 4.2, and then used DropStuff on my G4 to compress the image file to a .sit archive... not so much to save space but rather protect the image file.  Disk Copy 6.something was able to mount the image file on the desktop.  I'll provide both.

I was going to try to upload both the files to Mac Driver Museum, but it looks like you need an account (I don't have one).  If anyone has an account there or over at the garden let me know and I can also send you the files so that they may be available for everyone.  The uploader here doesn't seem to allow them.
