LINKSYS USB300M Ethernet Adapter 10/ 100Mbps USB 1 x RJ45
Gets the job done
- Pros: My laptop's old ethernet port is busted, so I got this. I'm happy with it and would recommend it. It is very lightweight. The activity light is sufficiently informative. The protective cap works to shield both the USB male and RJ45 female ports. The drivers are easy to find, but they are not even needed (works out of the box with Win7 and Fedora17). Overall, it adds ethernet capacity to my old laptop without adding nuisances, like weight, noises, clunky dubious drivers, etc.
- Cons: Protective cap is easily lost
- Other Thoughts: Minor heating when under heavy use; cable is weak-ish (it wont take much to damage it).

Rosewill RNG-406U Ethernet Adapter 10/ 100/ 1000Mbps USB 3.0 1 x RJ45
Seamless Gigabit over USB 3.0
- Pros: Windows 8 automatically detected the device and installed driver v1.16.7.0, the entire process taking no more than a minute.
Ran a quick 4GB transfer to test and speeds ranged from 59MB/sec to 70MB/sec, hovering most of the time around 65MB/sec. Transfer was completed in about a minute.
Extremely satisfied, but it's important to note that the device has been out of its packaging for less than an hour. Will update with long term results if things goes south. - Cons: n/a... for now
- Other Thoughts: Ethernet plug was very snug, almost had to force it in. Giggity.

TP-LINK TG-3468 Network Adapter 10/ 100/ 1000Mbps PCI-Express 1 x RJ45
heavy use in production environment
- Pros: Reliable, small form factor, Realtek.
- Cons: I'd like to see a multi-homed version of this card.
- Other Thoughts: I work as a sysadmin in a Windows environment and I use this as a secondary nic to transfer very large VHD files over a management/backup network. I routinely see sustained 100-120mbyte/sec transfers. I'm using Win7Pro.

Good and cheap

Rosewill RC-404 Ethernet Card 10/ 100/ 1000Mbps PCI 1 x RJ45
It's a network card, what more do you want?
- Pros: Small card. Sturdy and well made. I plugged this into a PFsense box (a BSD-based router OS) and it was recognized immediately, no drivers needed. Network performance is great, no hiccups.
- Cons: Even though this card is about 1U high, it didn't come with a Small Form Factor/Half-Height bracket. Why make a card that compact if you aren't going to give the users something that takes advantage of it? It seems silly but it's a huge missed opportunity, especially since as far as I can tell Rosewill doesn't offer any SFF cards and Newegg doesn't even allow you to search for them. I managed to improvise something for my SFF system, but it's less than ideal.

TP-LINK TG-3468 Network Adapter 10/ 100/ 1000Mbps PCI-Express 1 x RJ45
Server 2012 Hyper-V Issues.
- Pros: Price point
Speed
Works great under most normal configurations, as long as it's not bound to a Hyper-V virtual switch. (-1 egg) - Cons: Incompatible with Server 2012 Hyper-V Virtual Switches. (See Other)
- Other Thoughts: Under normal configurations this NIC performs as a NIC should. However when you try to configure this device with Hyper-V to include a Virtual Switch it will cause the system to BSOD as soon as you apply the configuration. I have had this happen every time I have tested it on a Dell 2950 Gen III as well as a Dell R910. The default NIC's for these servers (Intel) work perfectly when setup for V switching. This guy nope, same results every time.
***Please Note: This NIC is not defective, everything else works fine with it, including binding it to VmWare ESXI and Oracle Virtualbox. -Strange

Does what it should
- Pros: Simple, easy installation, works as it should
- Cons: none
- Other Thoughts: PCI installation was a breeze, Windows 7 recognized and installed drivers immediately. Connected a Cat6 cable and the gigabit light on my switch lit right up.

SYBA SD-PEX24033 Dual LAN Ports Gigabit Ethernet Card, Realtek Chipset 10/ 100/ 1000Mbps PCI-Express x1 2 x RJ45
Price is right
- Pros: Very inexpensive, will do NIC teaming including Etherchannel or LACP.
- Cons: I had to search for the NIC teaming software from Realtek. Once I found it it was very finicky on the install. Blue screened my computer twice on Windows 7 64 bit.
- Other Thoughts: For the price and a little bit of headache, if you want a cheap solution for NIC teaming...this is it. $30 for this where the next option is $100.
