Why would you want to make your own NIC? They are so "innexpensive" now-a-days that it's not worth the time..not even for an engineer like me. <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">
Either way.. assuming you can get the NIC controller soldered... which is an accomplisment on its own without a pick and place machine you'll need to program it.. by using a driver of course. Which you can do various ways...depending on the OS... You need both some low level assembly and some high level programming.. you may try to "bootleg" one of the drivers for a NIC using the same chipset. The Realtek website should have technical papers on the chipset...and how to program it.
