NIC vs Onboard LAN
For my new computer, I've changed the motherboard choice to Intels D865PERLL .
This board has onboard LAN "Intel 82562EZ(ET) 10/100Mbps Ethernet" I use a 3Com NIC in my present computer to connect to the cable modem. Am I correct in assuming that these are both used in the same way. That is, can I connect to the modem using the onboard LAN. Thanks, Dave |

yes...both operate as NIC's. the advantage of the onboard card is that you don't have to burn a PCI slot.
