I have tried my siblings' older laptops, Coincidentally, all of them have Realtek RTL8152/RTL8153 Based LAN cards despite notebooks coming from different manufacturers. So, I am guessing this might be a popular LAN driver. We might as well include that driver with OpenIndiana?
What might be the instructions to build that driver from source ( https://www.realtek.com/Download/List?cate_id=585) ?
