    Re: ethernet drive

    it can be little faster but it depends on the services provider and sometimes your router. some routers are bad. I had a linkseys hooked up and i was getting 5mb bearer on speakeasy.net then i got a new linkseys router and hooked it up then i was getting 13mb bearer with a dl speed of 2000k/b sa sec amazingly fast.

          ?ethernet contollers NO drivers downloaded

          I was given a pc that has an ASUS motherboard P5LD2-VM, There are two hard drives, Pentium 4 3.20GHz 1.49GB of RAM. IT is running windows XP version 2002 SERVICE PACK 2. There are alot of great programs already on it, but there are no drivers for the ethernet controller so I can not get on line. I do have internet on this old dell with less memory than my great grandmother, also i have a cruzer micro 1GB usb sandisk U3 smart flashdrive,

            All you need to do is go online and save the LAN driver to your USB stick. The drivers are here: http://support.asus.com/download/dow...model=P5LD2-VM and are pretty small in size. Simply plug the USB drive into the PC with the ASUS motherboard and run the setup utility.
