Don't be so quick to overlook the built in ethernet.
On 80% of my 7200s the ethernet cards are bad or unreliable. After testing
one, and finding it good, the ethernet died ("lost a status word") on my
firewall. :( After putting in eepro100 and tulip card, all is good.
Admittedly, I do have a g3 with a bmac ethernet, and it is working
perfectly.
There is no reason (besides hardware/driver trouble) why the same software
wouldn't work on one ethernet and work on another.
