Network interface error

Error: a once working RSX11M DECnet came up with a network adapter error after boot.

Explanation: the DEQNA must be connected over an AUI to 10MBit RG58 cable with BNC connectors. A AUI to modern twisted pair cable over RJ45 connectors gives an error.

Repair: build up an BNC network.
