I agree, avoid the $10 types. I bought 5 realtek 8139 type cards for 6
bucks a piece. Everything seemed kosher, they even ran with the Linux
drivers fine Until you had an unscheduled reboot due to power loss.
Then they would forget who they were and what they were supposed to do.
Didn't hurt
I haven't used those cards in months...
I switched to linksys 10/100... can get them for 15 bucks US and they work
flawlessly. All my 8139s have been donated to the local landfill.
