Do you really think, this is a problem? Normally, SAT-providers state
their bandwidth in kBit/s and not MByte/s. So I believe you won't hardly
be able to exploit the bandwidth within your card with IP-Networking.
The bottelneck of SAT-IP-Networking is the shared bandwidth on the
transponder and not the hardware on the DVB-card.

I have no personal experience with the full featured cards, but I know
people using T-DSL via Satellite from Deutsche Telekom with such cards
and they are getting equal transmission rates like I have with my budget
card.
