Shing Yeun:
By "mac address" do you mean a Canadian version of
"FCC" numbers?
You can try two other methods besides FCC numbers:
1. Plug the card into a Win95 computer and see what
is auto-detected... This is a good starting place
(Win95 usually get the Maker right but chokes on
the Model).
2. Look at the CHIPSET of the network card. The
chipset maker and series # should be on it.
Since it is likely a clone (if there is no branding)
you'll have to use the generic drivers anyway.
