Works great with madwifi drivers under Fedora Core 4. Haven't tried WPA. Apparently some cards with the exact same name may use a different chipset (Europe vs. USA - mine is the USA version).

Bult-in Network card on Asus P5B motherboard. Downloaded and installed the r1000 v1.05 driver from the vendor, but the card is not working properly at neither speed 10 or 100 half or full duplex. I have not had the opportunity to test it at speed 1000. The ping times on the local network varies from 0.1 ms to many seconds with a high average. Many packages are lost, so the card is useless in practice.
