NM-2FE2W card not being detected

I am attempting to add an additional ethernet port on a Cisco 2620 router using a NM-2FE2W card, however the card is not being detected.  I read that this card is compatible with this model router, but I have also notice that there is a version 2 of this card.  Have I ordered the wrong card or do I possibly have a defective card?  My ISO version is 12.2(26) on the router.

If this card is not compatible, what is the recommended card for adding an additional ethernet port on this router?

The 2600 series routers do not support NM-2FE2W.

Have a look at the table at the end of this link:

In reply also to Reza Sharifi, the link he specified was published in March of 2008. The PDF Data Sheet (attached) from the following link was published in May of 2009, and, in Table 5, seems to indicate that the NM-2FE2W is now supported in the Cisco 2600 Series beginning with IOS 12.0(7)XK, and in the Cisco 2600XM Series beginning with 12.2(8)T:

Am I incorrect in reading too much into this, that the NM-2FE2W is now supported, with the proper IOS, in the 2600 and 2600XM?

Anyone have experience with using these NMs successfully in the 2600 series? I believe that Version 2 of this NM (NM-2FE2W-V2) still remains unsupported in these routers.
