I don't have one here, but I vaguely remember they use a different kernel module
(8139too vs. via-rhine) so I think it's a different chipset. I only mentioned
them because some time in distant past I solved some performance problems by
switching from from 8139 to the dlink, and the dlink costs less than a half of
entry-level 3com.
