Hi,

Are you sure the card is getting recognized at startup.  What does dmesg
say?  Here is what I get with the same card on my IIcx:

  ae0 at nubus0: address 00:00:94:61:3d:e5, type MacCon Ethernet, 32k mem.

What do you get from a  'netstat -i' ?  Again, here is mine:

bullwinkle# netstat -i

sl0*  296   <Link>                               0     0        0     0

My guess is that the "network is unreachable" means the interface is not
recognized or configured.
