i had a freind over here and his notebook has the same nic in it. we noticed thatthe link would drop after he got an ip and was kinda flaky he couldnt get an ip in phoebe with the nic. seems the driver isnt the best i guess. my phoebe box with a realtek 8139 card had no issues getting an ip. so from my limited use with that card i would recomend a new nic.
