I don't need anything faster than 100baseT. I would think that Intel and 3Com would be in the "reliable" category, and RTL-based cards in the "forget it" category. On the Intel note, I wonder what experience y'all have had with the two different drivers for the EtherExpressPro/100 card. That is, eepro100 versus e100. I would think that noone would take the time to rewrite a driver if there wasn't anything wrong with the original one.
