Review on πŸ’» NETGEAR FA311 PCI Ethernet Interface Card: High-Speed 10/100Mbps Connectivity by Tiarik Gonzalez

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Reboot problems with FIC AD-11 MB

I installed this card in a FIC AD-11 motherboard and the system does not warm boot on Win98 or Linux (Kernel 2.4.3 from Mandrake 8.0). Pressing Reset will reboot the system and the software installation will resume from where it left off without any issues. There is an FAQ on the Netgear site that says the solution to this problem (IRQ conflict) is to switch the card to other PCI slots. The combinations I've tried so far don't work.

Pros
  • Very good value
Cons
  • Weight
