It is not my intention to recomend anything, however my 3com 305B works
like a charm and has done so for the past year, in fact i have never seens
one error with 'ifconfig'

          UP BROADCAST NOTRAILERS RUNNING  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:1503247 errors:7 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:7
          TX packets:51649 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:6

Thats with only 4 days of uptime, last uptime was 86 days and still no
errors.
Please note i mean Tx errors, Rx errors can origanate from other stn's.
