My Dell D600 has that exact same chip and it's cost me having to replace the motherboard a record 6 times. (same laptop) Issues ranges from : 1. intermittent network connectivity dying 2. Connection Counters Reset after > 3G traffic (cat * a mounted shared directory to /dev/null) 3. System Hangs. Pile Of Dung? Maybe. Bad Luck? High POssibility. Dell gone crappy over the years. Very Likely.
