Since I tested one PCI-E 8168 ethernet card in my X1000, many others have bought the same card as me (even resellers like Relec) and they are all working flawlessly (either in X1000 or X5000).tonyw wrote:Network cards:
There are drivers for RTL8139 and 8169 PCI cards. They are cheap as dirt and guaranteed to work. One betatester claimed to be able to use an 8168 with the 8169 driver, but that combination is not guaranteed to work.

I sometimes achieve speeds as high as 300Mbps (about 30MB/s but CPU is limiting higher speeds).
