Intex LAN Cards are good for nothing. Don’t waste time installing or trying to make that to work. We all know that it won’t work. I am sure their others products will also behave the same way.

Silan thing is supported in latest Linux kernels.but u may need to re-compile to enable the modules to be built supporting ur card.

[...] really hate to be the harbinger of bad news, but it’s a fake card… not a Realtec. Link __________________ New to Linux? Frustrated? Please read this. Registered Linux User: [...]

I was also cheated in the same way. I bought a Quantum network card which was supposed to have realtek chip. It works fine under windows XP but when i installed Fedora 6 i wasn’t able to browse.. i tried installing it using some of the ways i got to know from web thinking this is a REALTEK 8139D chipset card.. but to no avail..

Finally i ran a command LSPCI on Fedora 6 which told me that it was a card mentioned above..

Ethernet controller: Hangzhou Silan Microelectronics Co., Ltd. Unknown device 2031

I can’t do anything right now.. but i can tell you guys to not buy any product other than the original-company made ones.

ANyway cheers..
Life is good (at least beautiful to the eyes)!
