Any common Ethernet card should work fine. If not, you can always buy
another one as the low end ones are pretty cheap (and you're not going to
get more than 10 Mb/s on your DSL connection anyway). I have a Realtek also
(I forget if it's 8139 or 8129), and I bought it for probably $15-20 USD.

for me for desktop use.
You can check out www.scyld.com/network for more info on supported vs.
unsupported Ethernet hardware. I think these guys are the ones responsible
for many of the Ethernet drivers.
