G'day folks, I'm currently looking for an ethernet card for use on a 2.1-R system; a local computer consultant suggested that I get a 3com 3c509B Combo [about $100 from him] or an NE2000 clone [about $30]. Before I commit to buying one of the cards from him, I'd like to get recommendations from the FreeBSD community on which I should buy. How stable are the drivers for these two cards in 2.1R? THe particulars of this system, just in case you need to know: 486dx2 66Mhz on a VLB motherboard and 16 megs of RAM. Thanks, Travis -- | Travis Campbell |"Some people claim that the UNIX learning curve is | | travis@renaissoft.com | steep, but atleast you only have to climb it once."| |-----------------------|--------------------------------------- Anonymous --| | FreeBSD Administrator | Visit the FreeBSD Project: http://www.freebsd.org |
