Where did you get this JetDirect 610N card?  Is this a second hand card?

These cards were assembled with cold/low temp solder and they are well 
known to fail because of this particular solder.  You can try to bake 
the JetDirect card in an oven at 400F for 5 minutes (propped up on 4 
screws) and see if the card comes back to life.  No kidding, this works 
on about 95% of these dead JetDirect cards, I had this same problem and 
it worked for me.  Read the thread here:
