3Com Card
This card is a nice card but when it come to networking cads there is only two things that make a difference one being the speed, you only tend to find three types of network card all at various speeds ranging form 10 mbps then you get a 10/100 mbps and just recently you can now get hold of a 10/100/1000mbps cars that can use any of these three standards.

The Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet Adapter came built in to my pc, and I wouldn't want to replace it.
It provides a fast, reliable connection. Was easy to connect to and set up a connection with other pc's, laptop's, etc.
Great for gamers or business' that require wired link up between machines, servers or both. Felt like the data transfer was instant, so was perfect for backing up data from one machine onto another
Driver's are very easy to get hold of, just download them straight from the manufacturers website. Which also has very good support, if any problems should arise.

I would highly recommend this ethenet adapter to anyone. Especially gamers or small businesses. ...
