Broadcom has seriously skewed their site navigation. While a search for ndis2_os2 comes up empty, ndis2 does produce some recent ndis_os2 packages:

http://websearch.broadcom.com/query.html?qt=ndis2&col=www&charset=iso-8859-1

Apparently, Broadcom considers that *all* OS/2 systems utilizing their hardware are server-class machines. ;-)

Although I downloaded the 10.03 build of the driver some time ago, I have been using 8.28, which proved to be more stable for me. I just updated (again), for the heck of it.

Also - I note that the B57.OS2 is a 16-bit driver (genm32w.os2 is 32-bit). The Intel E100B and E1000 drivers include the header string, "This program requires Microsoft Windows." Just some interesting trivia...

There is one OS/2 driver at
http://www.broadcom.com/support/ethernet_nic/netxtreme_server.php, ie.,
in the NetXtreme section.  Can this driver be used?

Hi,

    
Broadcom B57
      
Hmm.  I don't think this driver is APM compliant.  A quick search for APM$
in the binary produces no hits.  This typically means that the driver will
not recover from a full power off suspend.

BTW, did Broadcom move the OS/2 drivers?  They are no longer listed at

Steven
