Advantages: 1) Uninterrupted operation of the network 2) Relatively compact case of the network card, which allows it to be installed even in a small system unit with a large video card
Disadvantages: I thought the motherboard case was somewhat flimsy, but it was inserted into the connector easily. The main drawback is that the motherboard needs the drivers that come with the kit to work. It works flawlessly on the "seven"
Comment: For 200 rubles - an excellent network card. It works stably and makes itself felt only with a green flashing light on the back of the case

Advantages: Very reliable: it has been working without failures for over 7 years. Moderately fast: 100 Mbit / s is taken easily. Long-term manufacturer support: the driver is installed in most operating systems, both modern and outdated, in many systems the driver is built into the distribution. Compact. Supports PCI interface. Partially protects the motherboard from lightning damage. High compatibility with various hardware configurations.
Disadvantages: Budgetary components. No low profile bar included.
Comment: There is no hardware acceleration for packet processing and packet sequencing, but these capabilities are present only in significantly more expensive network cards.

Advantages: - low price (took only 186 rubles in Penza :)) - 11 months warranty (in the store) - compact - managed to fit on the motherboard Gigabyte GA-8PE800 (there is a fan for a video card in the next slot, DFE-520TX is not very strong blocks the air flow, which is very good :) - without glitches, it seems simple, but reliable, for years to come :)
Disadvantages: No, everything is fine
Comment: I liked it very much. It works well, does not let anyone know about itself. And when I remember, it's nice that she sits inside the system unit. :) In general, I organically fit into the computer. Installed without problems. The price was very good. An excellent card without unnecessary bells and whistles for good money. Very satisfied. :)

Advantages: Works on any hardware - it worked for me both on a computer with a Core 2 Duo and on a computer with a Pentium I - 100. And it often works more stable than the built-in one (although here, most likely, according to the principle "he will understand his own better" - at the provider on the roof D-Link 'ovsky hub)
Disadvantages: It is necessary to install separate drivers, for me, in principle, this is not a problem, but when I came to a friend (his network girl burned out) the problem turned out - I need to download the drivers, but how?
Comment: Initially, I bought it for the main computer (based on Core2Duo), then I decided to throw the network on a Pentium 1-100 computer, after installing the firewood, everything immediately started working.Unlike Acorp L-100S for which I could not find normal firewood for Win98, or rather they did not want to be detected.

Advantages: Low price, compact design, does not block air access to neighboring boards, ease of installation in the corresponding slot on the motherboard.
Disadvantages: The lack of an additional coprocessor to unload the main CPU ... :) but in fact, to be serious, there are no shortcomings in it for this money.
Comment: The best option for using in a 10/100 mb / s network with a certain comfort. Personally, I had no problems with the drivers, I installed it and forgot, Windows 7 recognizes the board itself, and can work with it without installing drivers.

Advantages: The price is scanty (in 2006 it cost 300r), it is easy to install, the speed is high.
Disadvantages: I haven't found it, although I've been using it for 3 years
Comment: I assembled a new computer, it turned out that on the ASUS P5Q-SE motherboard, a brake built-in Ethernet controller (there were constant breaks, there was a low speed and the ping became twice as large), put the good old DFE-520TX and everything was fixed. In general, the card is excellent, everyone should take it!

Advantages: The Internet connection does not break, the drivers included are notable, detailed instructions ...
Disadvantages: What are the disadvantages here ..
Comment: While there were no problems, in general I am glad about such a cheap and high-quality contraption, previously the Internet on different mat. cards with built-in network cards were cut off every 1-5 minutes, everything is gorgeous here. I don't have it for long, maybe ugh ugh ugh, what jambs will appear, I don't know.

Advantages: The old one on the motherboard was plugging in. I changed my mother, it was not much better. The speed of the network card was no higher than 5-6 Mb / s incoming and 1-3 Mb / s outgoing during the day. In the evening, and even less, sometimes I could hardly reach 3 mb / s incoming and 460-1100 kb / s outgoing approximately. According to the recommendations, I bought a D-link DFE-520TX network card for 147 rubles, installed it. Works smoothly. The network does not lose. Daytime speed 11-15 mb / s, sometimes up to 20 mb / s incoming and 7-9 mb / s outgoing. In general, the speed is as promised by the provider. I measured the speeds on different sites through the Chrome browser. I got up to seven without drivers. Installation is simple too. Takes 2 minutes.
Disadvantages: NO KIDDING!!! For such a penny, there were no questions even in my thoughts!)))))))
Comment: In general, take it! You won't get any complaints!))))))))))))))))

Advantages: Stability of work, malfunction indicator.
Disadvantages: They are not.
Comment: An excellent card. I used to use the built-in asus on my mother. I bought this for 250 rubles and now the Internet has become 2-3 times more stable + the speed has become 30-50 kb higher. In general, take it.
