Hello,
I'm thinking about playing with pfsync/carp a bit and for this I will need to
buy few additional NICs. From various notes it seems Gbit Realtek chips might
not be that crappy as their 100Mbit counterprarts (except 8139c+) and the cards
with them seem to even be cheaper than 100Mbit cards from 3Com and Intel. Now
the question is what's better for this deployment/playing? Since I'd like to
learn I'm not in the possition to solve various "strange" or "instable"
hardware issues, hence reluctant to give Realtek a try (e.g. U.S. Robotics
USR997902). Is there anybody here using Realtek 8169(S) based NIC and satified
with them?
Thanks,
Karel
