I knew it: I also have a LinkSys PCMPC100 lying around. This 
is a PCMCIA 10/100 card. (But keep in mind that the actual 
performance of this card will be lower than that of an 
equivalent Cardbus card.)

I just tested it for you: works fine at 100Mbps FX mode on a 
stock 4.2-STABLE system. Same driver (ed) as the EC2T.

You can get these for 42 US dollars:

I've now replaced my EC2T with this one and will see how it
works.

Cheers,
Jeroen
