Your original message mentions a switch. Is this still present? If so, have you checked
what link speed is negotiated between this switch an the device?
If not, have you used 'ethtool' to check that the NIC is actually negotiating 10Mbps?
For that matter. Maybe this dinosaur can't handle full-duplex?

Is the AUI from the early 1990 as well? As I recall, an AUI is an active device.
So you might have some luck replacing it with something newer (late 90's).
I don't suppose you have an old 10Mbps hub around?
I used to have one which I kept to snoop on the device side of a
switch I was suspicious of.
Beyond this, I'm out of ideas. You might be stuck using an older host to
talk to this device. (30 years is a long time to maintain compatibility)
