    What do I need for 1Gbit Ethernet?

    Glider, thanks a ton for the great information! I have to admit though, that while I do appreciate being able to deliver the best possible results, this methodology is a little excessive, and would prove far too time-consuming. Us adding network testing to our motherboard content is simply...
