May I suggest the D-Link DFE-530TX+ 10/100 Fast Ethernet PCI adapter? My company bought a case of them from Tiger Direct. They come with a CD that has drivers for almost every operating system including
two drivers for Mac. OS driver for 8x-9x and an OS X. They are easy to install and set up. This card also comes with a cable to connect the "Wake On Lan Management" that connects to the card and motherboard. This is the most versatile card we could find, and has a lifetime warranty. It can put out up to 200Mbps, which sold us on them. They were less than $10.00 each. Also they have a 24/7 tech support 800 free number if needed, but it is so simple to set up in the G3 MT, G3 DT, and 7600's that we have in our offices. I am sure the B&W would have no problems either. You should read the help file found on the CD in the Mac folder before installing, on how to make it function on your mac's.
