Hey Hal, there are a LOT of mfgers who use implementations of the controller chipsets. And it isnt necessary that all of them perform the same. I havent tried startech as yet. However what speed/mode have you tested the realtek at?
Incidentally some implementations of Realtek's 100 full duplex gave problems with various Linux kernels as well.
Also have you tried measuring CPU load during various speed transfers.
Of course the 3COM is a very reliable one, XayD where do you get yours cheap? From my searches I get very expensive quotes on the 3coms.
