We are using Aopen 325 NIC cards (which is based on the RealTek RTL8139A chipset) in addition to 3com 905b cards. Have had no problem with either one.

They just won't work with IMail, several people have confirmed this. Sohoware may be another to stay away from; we've seen problems where certain common packets will cause a connect to fail (you can send whatever you want, but can't receive most files). For ethernet cards, it's best to stick with high end name-brand cards rather than the cheap ones. There are lots of inexpensive products that work just as well as the expensive ones, but it just doesn't seem to be so with ethernet cards, and the price difference doesn't justify going with the cheaper product. -Scott --- Declude: Anti-virus, Anti-spam and Anti-hijacking solutions for IMail. http://www.declude.com Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
