In this business a descriptive text name like that is not very accurate,
I have no idea what model this is.  The official name for the
SMC9332 is ``EtherPower 10/100 Fast Ethernet PCI Adapter''.  I do not
know of _ANY_ EtherLink class cards that can do 100Mbs, all the 100Mbs
cards are called EtherPower.
