Is there any network interface card that - out of the box - will work
with Vista? I have a Netgear FA311 that doesn't see the network, even with the latest "beta" drivers. I'm not sure it is the v. 2 model. WLW

Have you tried something like that? Already tried that - a no go. I did mean to mention that I need a pci card. Supposedly the Netgear GA 311 will work but don't want to get one and it not work.

WLW The v1.80 drivers I've been using in XP work in 32-bit Vista with my v.1 model (Mine's is a FA311 v1 revB model, check the label on your card for the exact model/revision). Vista warns you that the drivers aren't signed, but you can install them anyway on 32-bit Vista, not so sure about 64-bit. I don't know how stable they'll be for heavy p2p use, but for general browsing they seem to work perfectly. Have a look on the net for the v1.80 drivers, if you can't find them let me know and I'll either host them for you, or email them to you.
