I like kingston cards, they have never failed me, I use them in all of my
clients machines, from, windows 95 to NT4.0 and in my Linux box, the older
ones run great under ne2000 drivers, and the 10/100 run under the tulip
drivers. Pretty standard, also 3com makes a great card, those are the
only ones i would trust.

:I live in the Phoenixville area. Story I got from BA is that they can go out
:12,000 feet with ADSL and Covad told me that they could go out 18,000 feet with
:DSL. Voicenet, who is now providing ADSL as well as DSL (if I heard correctly)
:confirmed this (12K max for ADSL and 18K max for DSL). This could explain why
:Covad says they can do it while BA says they can't. Of course the farther away
:the slower. Interestingly, out of all the folks at my ISP, Covad and BA, the
:person who knew the most about DSL (and the politics involved) was the guy digging
:up my front lawn.

:Yes, I am in the process of getting DSL, but was told (by Covad) that I needed to
:upgrade my copper so BA just ran a 6 pair wire up my front lawn (their cost ).
:Thought the whole point was that it would run on existing copper, but oh well.

:I need to get a couple of NICs, one for my wife's Windows 98 box and one for my RH
:6.1 box. Any suggestions?
