It's been awhile since I tried one (well, not *that* long... 3.0-Release) but I was seriously lagged (horrible ping responses to my gateway) and could never download faster than 1k/s on my adsl connection. I even remember having to maintain a constant ping to my gateway so that connections (IRC, web, etc.) wouldn't time out. I now use 3Com's 905B-TX cards and they work flawlessly. "Sameer R.
