I use a 3Com 3c3FEM556C.  It does 10/100, has a built in modem, and =
dongle is optional (doesn't need one, but can use one).  Very solid =
linux support, and seems to perform great.

  Hey PLUGgers,

  I've got a AddTron AF-260R and it looks like I can make this run as a =
Realtek8139. This 10/100 card works , but I'd like something with more =
performance. I do PCAPs on lots of networks, and occasionally need =
100Mbps. My laptop supports CardBus. Any suggestions on a decently=20
  supported 10/100Mbps laptop NIC? (Also, no dongles. I lose them.)

  Anyone in town have recent BSD discs? I just put a 40GB drive in my =
laptop and I'm itching to load a BSD variant on it.=20
