The Compaq network adapter is a relatively simple device; it just does its job of connecting you to the internet, with no fuss and no frills. It might not be glamorous, but rarely needs replacing (so the user rarely has to deal with the thorny ethical problem of how to dispose of it), is generally reliable, and is particularly useful for laptop owners.
In addition, the NC 3123 (174830-B21) is a product of Hewlett Packard Company, which has been accorded a medium Gooshing ethical score in recognition of its stance on such issues as animal testing and fair trade.

Based on Intel's 82559 communications processor, the NC3123 incorporates a variety of features for faster throughput than previous 10/100 NICs, increasing flexibility and reducing support costs. Full-duplex support allows the NC3123 to transmit and receive data simultaneously at rates up to 20 Mbps for Ethernet and 200 Mbps for Fast Ethernet. Performance is further enhanced with 6 KB of buffer memory, which makes for low CPU utilization at high throughputs. Auto-sensing capabilities enable it to automatically negotiate between 10 and 100 Mbps to achieve the highest common speed on the network. Adaptive Load Balancing (ALB) and Cisco's Fast EtherChannel are two port-bonding methods supported by the NC3123. ALB provides both fail over and balancing of transmit traffic across NICs for increased performance. |
