Rosewill RC-400-LX Network Adapter 10/ 100/ 1000Mbps PCI 1 x RJ45

Pros: Replaced on board network adapter after lighting took it out. Seems faster and was an easy install.

Cons: none

Pros: my onboard NIC died so this is a replacement. It work as it should, windows 7 recognized it and automatically install the driver. For some reason, I think it is faster then the onboard even though they are both 1gb.

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: for $10 this does what it's suppsoed to do.

Pros: Cheap gigabit network adapter.

Cons: Not an intel chipset?

Other Thoughts: Have two of these in a pfSense box acting as my main router. One acting as the WAN connection, connecting directly to the Fios ONT via cat 6, the other as the LAN interface connected to a Rosewill 8-port Gigabit switch.

During the pfsense install, it recognized them, and set them up without any issues. If you need a cheap gigabit nic, look no further.

Pros: Quick easy installation
Solid Construction
Gigabit speeds

Cons: On Windows Home Server I needed to use the disc, on ubuntu server I did not. Not a big problem at all!

Pros: Its cheap. Makes use of my PCI slots on the motherboard.

Cons: Unreliable. I bought two and only 1 works. There is something to be said about getting what you pay for.

Pros: works.

Cons: seem kind of cheap, but it works.
I had to use the CD to install the driver.

Other Thoughts: i only used 1 of the 4 i purchased because i didn't realize that the other pcs only had pci-e slots (woops)

Pros: Works great on my gigabit lan. I have 4 of these running in enterprise atmospheres and none of them have bit the dust. I would recommend these in a heart beat.

Cons: None, wish they were free

Pros: Easily installed, dirt cheap and functions great.

Cons: Discontinued: I liked this one so much that I wanted to buy another, but sadly it was discontinued.

Other Thoughts: I hope there's a newer version out there.... I still need another.

Pros: Used this in my Ubuntu server box an had no problems. No hiccups or problems.

Cons: None

Pros: -It's not too expensive
-Faster than ethernet

Cons: I say faster than ethernet because on my network (and in a crossover connection to my desktop) this card can only get up to around 250mbps using speedtest mini and from doing large file transfers.

Other Thoughts: If you absolutely require gigabit speeds look for something a bit higher quality, however this is still a pretty decent card for the money.
