Faster than the competition in Linux [Posted on 2007-08-28]
This is the second gigabit expresscard I've tried on my laptop. The first, a Linksys Expresscard Gigabit Eth Adapter Pci Express, has a spring-loaded RJ-45 jack that folds down to allow for easier storage, but doesn't protect the pins well and they eventually broke. That Linksys card was not very fast; I never really got gigabit speeds with it. This Belkin card is significantly faster, and was detected by Ubuntu Linux (7.04, Feisty Fawn) right away, nothing to load or configure. I would buy one of these again in a heartbeat. This Belkin card is not as cool-looking as the Linksys, but it has it where it counts, and that's speed.
Most Pleased! [Posted on 2007-11-30]
Ordered the express card after a thunder storm blew out my internal ethernet port. Installation was very easy, just slipped the card into the slot. Connected the ethernet cable, turned on the laptop, and I'm browsing the internet again! Performs wonderfully!
