Hi!

To clarify up a bit:

Netgear manufactured the FA310, which had 4 revisions.

the first two, IIRC, hat genuine digital chips on it, the last two
revisions hat digital-clones on it, therefore the handling by the dc(4)
driver.

the Netgear Fa311 has a different chipset on it, that is driven by the
sis(4) driver.

BTW: the sis ist supported since 4.1.1-R


HTH
