Network Interface Card

[John]

Hi guys,

I need to buy a network interface card, but at the moment don't have the time to find out what sort to buy, as there appears to be so many different types to choose from.

They're trialling a 10Mbps broadband system at my univeristy student accommodation, and I'm signing up for it, only a NIC is needed.

I'm pretty knowledged with computers, but when it comes to networking, i'm lost!

Any help would be much appreciated. :)

I don't know much about networking, but I would have thought any 10/100 ethernet card would suit the purpose but I'm probably barking !!!

Yes, barking Plater, but up the right tree! As you say any of those cards will do the job. :)

Is it on Wifi or cable? As this makes a difference.

More beer money on gadgets, what a terrible World we live in eh SJ? :laugh

Indeed Keith! Had a word with a mate of mine and he also said any 10/100 Ethernet card will do the job. If I can get broadband (beginning of March), I'll never leave this place! :yikes:
