Equipment Basics
In
a standard, small network, each PC attached to the network must have its
own network interface card (NIC). These cards fit in the PCI or ISA slot
on a PC's motherboard, or, in the case of a notebook computer, the
PCMCIA slot.
Guide to Using Fast Ethernet Lantronix The demand for higher transmission speeds for near-term network growth has been realized by the new Fast Ethernet specification (IEEE 802.3u) known as 100BASE-T. This new LAN standard has raised the Ethernet speed limit from 10 Megabits per second to 100 Megabits per second with only minimal changes to the existing cable structure.
Set up your first Ethernet network at home homePCnetwork Here is a basic step-by-step to build a network at home. As you may know, there are plenty of kits out there that come with the basic hardware and instructions you need to do this. But, if you "happen" upon a couple of network cards or just can't bare the thought of getting ripped off with a 'kit' (as many are), then look here for an easy how-to.
What You Need for Ethernet HowStuffWorks Ethernet is available in two speeds: 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps. Most NICs are capable of operating at either speed, but you should check to be sure before purchasing. Get cards capable of the 100-Mbps data rate -- the difference in cost is minimal. A 10-Mbps card costs about $15 to $40, and a 10/100-Mbps card costs about $25 to $50.
