Internal Ethernet controller
A variety of Ethernet controllers is integrated into almost all models starting with the introduction of the A, T and X series.
The Ethernet controller is located on either a MiniPCI card, Communications Daughter Card (CDC), or integrated on the systemboard.
3COM 10/100
MiniPCI cards featuring this chip:
Intel 10/100
Chipset: Various Intel Mobile Ethernet chips, i.e.
- Intel 82562EZ
Driver: e100
The 'e100' driver is the suggested driver, but 'eepro100' should also work.
