I'm not surprised to see this problem here I had the EXACT same problem with the EXACT same card on a 7300 running 10.2.3. I did the same thing as you guys, downloaded the "official" driver from the DLink website, installed it but no joy. Then I found this here: http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads downloads13.aspx?series=16&Software=True#16Others and it worked! Many NIC's use the Realtek 8139 chipset. This is the manufacturer's driver. I figured if this didn't work then NOTHING will! The installer mentions in rather obvious language that you cannot install it properly from the Installer program, that you MUST use the Terminal to install it, but just for experimentation's sake I did NOT use the Terminal. It installed without a hitch! Hope this helps you guys!!
