Hi,
Please help me find "clarity!" I write asm. code to control industrial processes, motors, etc. I use masm for xx86 cpu. under DOS in which we take over ISR while running our own proprietary OS. From my understanding, or lack of, NIC have send and receive buffers. They may be mapped to memory thats used instead? Perhaps a Base address and offset? Anyhow, looking at network functions in C doesn't make things clear in my mind how NIC hardware works. I want to write an assembler driver, but I can't figure how to access the data? I have zero experience in network programming. Any links/advice or examples would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
