Just a thought, mabe you should use a couple of ISA NICs, though you
may be limited to 10Mbit and not 100Mbit, not to mention the overhead
WRT handling ISA interrupts vs PCI...

Yes, you are limited to EV5 only (not EV56), and the fastest put in
there was 333MHz (I had a 266MHz that I recently upgraded to a 333MHZ
one which was just lying around :-). You need the CPU and an
oscillator of the appropriate frequency. Prolly isn't worth the hassle,
unless it's free, as I didn't notice much improvement... ;-}
