 no driver support for Windows Server 2003 April 25, 2008
Guy M. Kitashiro (Honolulu, HI)
I purchased two of these NICs; one for a Windows 2003 Server and the other for a Vista workstation. Although there's support for Vista, there is no driver support for Windows 2003 Server. Sometimes Windows 2000 drivers work on Windows 2003 Server, but I opted not to make a testing activity out of my purchase. I've since checked the Microsoft HCL; returned the Netgear GA311 and purchased a NIC that's on the list from Amazon. RMA process with Amazon was very easy.
 Excellent Product March 4, 2008
D. MacLaird (Durango, Co.)
This was a snap to install and get going. It is lightning fast and was well worth the small investment.
Perfect match for Linux October 3, 2007

I picked this up after having some trouble with a few other network cards, while trying to get both kgdb support in Linux, and gigabit ethernet networking at the same time.
This card works perfectly with Linux, at least for the Redhat-based distros I've been dealing with lately. If you're compiling your network drivers into the kernel (not as kernel modules), for kernel 2.6.18 and later, just choose "Realtek 8169 gigabit ethernet support" in the kernel configuration and it will work.
very good product July 1, 2007

i bought it with the gigait edition router, the setup was pretty painless and it works great.
Wont get 1000 Mbps with a PCI card May 9, 2007
Anil Gupta (Boston, MA)
Dont expect to get 1000 Mbps out of any PCI card, unless you have PCI express. But I clocked FTP transfer speeds at 380 Mbps.
