Last year, we had to use the 3com card to (1) install and (2) get the
latest source from netgear.com, cuz the stuff on the floppy what came
with the card didn't work. Only then could we actually make use of the
NetGear. ptooie.
The natsemi module didn't work for us, either.
Next time we had to buy NIC, we went for D-Link, even with the associated
arguments over the RealTek 8139.
If you've got another system netwise, you might could get the latest
source from their site, compile, and use sneakernet to transport it to
your friend's machine. The install lets you load outside modules from
floppy.
