The current wisdom says to avoid the 3com 3c905, and go with a DEC
"Tulip" based card. I do know from personal experience that the 3c905
has problems - haven't tried a Tulip card yet, but will be using one
very soon.
The other card I see mentioned a lot, but never see much as far as
recommendations, is the Intel EtherExpress 100. Anyone have any
thoughts on those?
Later,
Dale
