    The card uses a DL-2000 chipset. I found a patch that was intended to make
    things work but, it doesn't work. I suppose that I'll have to check out the
    Intel PRO/1000 MF or Netgear that you suggest.

    Thanks,

    Steve

    Do you know what chipset it is ?

    I've had good luck with Netgear GA620 cards, both fiber and copper.
