I don't know about adding twisted-pair capability; I would think you
would need some sort of balun on the card, too. But yes, these cards
can run in NE-2 mode, and are supported by Windows 95, NT, Windows for
Workgroups, and even Linux. Most of my home network is using them in
that mode. I got a bunch cheap when a business here in town switched
to a different setup.

I would like to add TP feature to it as it has solder pads for this

moment. However, if this card is anything like the NodeRunner card (which
replaced the AE series cards) and can be configured for NE2000 mode, you
can only run it in NE2000 mode using an 8-bit interrupt (ie. 2, 3, 4, 5,
7).
