Cheap card. Slightly faster than my 100Mb/sec onboard nic
Unless I'm doing something wrong, this card is slightly faster than my 100mb/s onboard nic. I copied a 4.7 gb iso file over from my NAS drive using the computer's onboard nic. It avg around 7.5-7.7 mb/sec. Then I installed the pcitxr gigabit card and it definately was faster, but it only went up to about 11mb/sec. I didn't expect 10x improvement, but was hoping for just 2x (think about it, 1000/100=10x).BTW, I'm running a dlink dgs-2208 gigabit switch between the computer and the nas if that matters.Update 6/14/10:The slow speed is due to the dlink NAS drive. I have a dlink 321 and 323. They are both slow and even though they are advertised as NAS with a gigabit interface, it will only average 8-11mb/sec. Some have seen 15mb/sec (I have), but that's not average.I've been running this nic card for about 1.5 years and it's been reliable. I'm updating the rating from 3 to a 5.I also noticed someone gave me a thumbs down on this...

Great Nic!
I have tried many ethernet cards, and this one is tops. It uses a superior chipset that is now hard to find, but it is highly reliable. Later versions tend to overheat, but not this one. I have several of them, and unlike many other nics, I am happy with all of them. This is clearly another gem from TRENDnet, and I am quickly becoming a fan! You need this card!Regards,proclus[...]

Not the fastest 1GB adapter but great value
I needed to upgrade my media server (win2k3 home server) and my home theater pc (win7 home premium) to gigabit from their built in 100bt NICs. I couldn't stream large 24gb+ 1080p high def mkv files, the network wasn't fast enough. But i also didn't want to dump a bunch of money into new cards so i checked out these Trendnet cards, i picked them up for 10 bucks each at another store.These cards install in a regular 32bit PCI slot. Both windows 7 and windows server 2003 recognized and auto-installed the drivers. These cards are based on the Realtek RTL8169 chipset and although my 2003 server had a driver already, i had to download a newer driver from Realtek to get Jumbo Frame support. The windows 7 driver that auto-installed was full featured.You will want to enable Jumbo Frames to get the most performance out of these cards. Unfortunately the driver only supports jumbo frames up to 7k (rather than 9k), but turning on jumbo frames upped my transfer rate...

Uses a cd for the drivers
So far, I've bought two of these and both have worked flawlessly. After a line surge (which had a surge protector) two of our computers ethernet ports installed directly to the motherboards quit working. Neither of these computers have "floppy disk" drives and so I was glad to see that these come with cd's to install the drives. However, the computer read the drives as soon as the PCI NIC was installed. I'm happy to say that both now hook up consistently even though one has been replaced by an EMachine and will be kept as a spare. The Startech 10/100BT card is a winner and very inexpensive. It just works and that is all I ask from any tool!

Worked when other brand wouldn't on Win 7
Needing a gig card for my new Windows 7 PC, I purchased the cheaper . I just needed a cheap pcie gig card and this one seemed to be perfect. However after several hours troubleshooting on my machine, I could not get this to work. The card worked fine in my older XP machine, so I know the card was fine, but for some reason I was getting error messages in Device Manager on the Windows 7 machine. I spoke with support, who was somewhat helpful, but could not help me to get it working. I think that the problem is with Windows 7 machines with Realtek drivers already installed for onboard LAN.After about 4 hours of trying to get it to work, I decided to pay a little more and hope this Intel card would work. Sure enough, Windows 7 immediately...

WIcked Fast (Windows 7 64bit)
I would love to know why I had to buy a network card for my new PC when one is built in that is not compatible with Windows 7 that it came with. Either way this card is awesome. I moved it to my other PC and it is noticeably faster than the built in jack on that one. Needless to say I have another one coming. Well worth the money and 10 minutes to install.

Worked first time (Windows 7)
I used this to replace an existing network card in an old computer. There were no Windows 7 drivers available for the old network cards (that I could find), and I couldn't use windows update to find any, because I couldn't connect to the network. I've never had any problems with Intel network cards (I've installed them in 10+ computers over the last 15 years or so). Just pop them in, and windows recognizes them straight away.

Looks cheap, but works amazingly well!!
My first impression is "this is such a cheapo lookin' card, but for the price, I guess I can give it a try"... Boy, was I wrong or what? The installation is so easy, it took 2 minutes and 40 seconds, including opening and closing the computer cover, and software driver. The card's performance is second to none, far exceeds my Linksys and Netgear, even Intel cards. Ever since, I've buying this particular card for my home and professional networking use, and it never failed me.I know some people gets uncomfortable when they see a "ancient floppy disk" for storing driver. But darn it, it works great. And what's amazing about D-Link, is that they always seem to include the latest driver in their packaging. I have bought over 60 of these cards, and the driver date is just barely 2 - 3 months old on every purchase. Consider Linksys, their drivers are at least 1 year old. To top it off, Windows 2000 and ME has build-in drivers for this card, and the floppy...

Overall a good home or small office network card
I have been using D-Link brand for about 4 years. During the years I have been networking, I have used Intel, 3com briefly, SMC, and Netgear as well. I have read so many negative reviews about Linksys that I won't even bother. Intel cards are excellent, but not real cheap. The cheapest I have found was about..., which isn't bad at all, but if you are looking for an economical network card that isn't loaded with every feature and it doesn't have to start your car, Intel is a little too much. 3com is one of the better brands, but still expensive. The rest are fairly good, but I started using D-Link after my last employer relied on them heavily.The entire office network of nearly 20 computers was done using D-Link hardware. They used D-Link network cards, switches, and routers for the Novell and Internet connections.What surprises me is how low cost the hardware is. They are usually the same as other brands, perhaps even a few bucks cheaper at times. I bought an 8 port 10 mbps hub...

Good Budget Card
This is a good card for most of us who want to get networked. There are good linux drivers out there and performance is pretty decent....However, if you're looking for a card to put in a server where high transfer rates are very important and low CPU usage would also be nice, look for another card. In my own tests of transferring files across a network from a fileserver, this card used 40% of the CPU where other cards that I have tested (but are more expensive) use about half of that with slightly higher transfer rates.

Great NIC Card
I needed a Gigabit NIC card for our Windows 2003 Server and I ended up choosing this one. Great price for a great card. Installation was a snap. I installed the drivers first, then powered down the server and installed the card. After rebooting the server it found the drivers and went right to work. Been performing perfectly ever since. Thanks Intel for making another great network card.

Works with Solaris 10 x86
My old eMachines T1150 has no built-in NIC. Two cheap 10/100 NICs were not recognized by Solaris 10 x86 (actually, Solaris Nevada b69). I finally decide to buy the Intel PWLA8391GT PRO/1000 GT PCI NIC since I read it used the Solaris e1000g driver. Sure enough, it worked for me. My PC has a 1.3GHz Celeron, 384MB RAM, and two 40GB 5400 RPM disks, so the throughput on the NIC is probably limited by the hardware around it. Thought I'd pass this info along in case there are Solaris folks out there looking for compatible PCI NICs. I believe there's a PCIe version available too.

Just OK
I am by no means computer savvy, but my internet stopped working and after an hour on the phone with my internet provider they determined it was the PCI card. I found this on Amazon and ordered it. Installation of the card was simple and self explanatory. The problem is that the software driver that comes on the disk does not auto-run, at least not on my XP computer. When I figured out how to get the disk to run, I got a window with hundreds of files. I am not positive, but it appears to me that the disk has the driver software for all the products the company sells. It's up to you to figure out what driver to install, and the files on the disk are not clearly named. In the end, it works, but it took me many hours of aggravation to get the proper driver installed. The book that comes with it is only a few pages, and it says insert the disk and it will auto-run, which it did not on my XP computer. 3 stars because it is OK for the price, and it works, but extremely time...
