The 3C905 isn't supported, but the chip specs look quite promising. I can't tell if it will be supported in the future. The 3C595 is supported (please install patch K210-015..) but unfortunately does not perform very well on 100mbps. If 100mbps is a requirement, I'd choose a 21140-based card instead. Geert Jan
