MESA card (LAN) failing to connect.

One of my subscribers is having an issue. Unfortunately, I have not yet tried using the LAN-style MESA card, so I am unsure how to help him.

Jere is the message I got:

"Hi Jerry,I have a Mesa 7i92 card that is plugged into the Ethernet on my computer.  It is also connected to a 7i77 daughter card, and I have a 5v power supply going into the 7i92."

Do any of you have some tips that might be helpful?
Thanks,
Jerry
 

This link into one of my videos explains it, Simple networking setup. Its not plug and play

the 7i77 needs 5v power supply as well, I think

@RodW,
50 minute video for a 3 minute setup, really?
Here is everything in one place and does not take 50 minutes:

If you had of followed the link It would have taken you to the exact spot about 16 minutes in where I discuss the networking in that 50 minutes. Its a very old video now but still current.

OK, that is nice, so i am sorry for bantering, i have every security feature enabled here so for me it starts from the beginning.
