PCI 10/100
Realtek RTL8139
Wake on LAN, with cable
Hawking PN102TXA
Fry's # 2995005
$6.99 thru 3-12-02

Drivers are on Realtek site but not under OS/2. They are in the
developer pack which is a single file of RTL8139 drivers for all OS.

OS/2 NIC install did the paper work but forget to copy RTSEND.OS2. An
error during the next boot says file not found so you know the file that
is needed and where to put it - IBMCOM\MACS. Not a big deal, but it is
the only time OS/2 has had that problem with me.

Other RTL8139 NICs at Fry's:
These both have WOL connector pads on circuit board, but they did not
install the connector.

TRENDnet TE100-PCIWIN
Fry's # 2706653
$9.99

GigaFast EE100AE
Fry's # 3176310
$7.90

I installed one and then plugged in the other two and they worked; 100M
LAN, 768 cable.
