I have been using one of these network cards ever since I moved into student halls (I have an ethernet conection to the net in my room going through this card) and I love it. Other people in my halls are content to download from the net at up to 500K a second with their cheap nasty no-name network cards. I can get just under 1 meg a second over the exact same network using this card, which I think speaks for itself. It is a lovely card to use once it is installed, but I had murder installing it on my PC. The first time it took about 2 hours to install because a lot of general messing around was needed, but it worked. Then a few weeks later I had to format my ... Read the complete review

This card, as with most 3-Com cards, is very much worth purchasing. The auto-detect feature is faultless and as far as compatibility goes there's more than ample support on the driver disks to get you going be it DOS, windows or Linux. The cost of these cards would be a concern of mine if purchasing for a company as it'll soon add-up to quite a bit of cash. If you don't have cashflow issues or are only buying a few then by all means in vest in an excellent card. Once thing I think worth mentioning about these cards is their driver support. I know I said above that they have lots of OS support. But what I like more is the fact that ... Read the complete review

3Com's excellent network interface card (NIC)certainly cuts the mustart especially for the desktop. It gives 10Mbps over CAT 3, 4 or 5, and 100Mbps for CAT 5. It has the usual RJ45 and BNC connections for ethernet networks. Installation is a dream especially on plug and play operating systems. For the network management freaks among you it has :- 1) Performance Management 2) Network Management (over switched networks) 3) Remote Wake Up (RWU) 4) Desktop Management capabilities. Overall the card is extremely reliable and robust. ... Read the complete review
