Re: Netgear GA311 NIC
Very strange. I used a batch of exactly the same cards recently to upgrade a client's workstations to gigabit. They all worked perfectly on cat5e, even a couple that are pushing the 100m limit.

Maybe you just have a 'duff' card. Have you tried forcing the speed settings rather than auto-negotiation?
