[ILUG] Upgradeing NICs' to Gb

[Paulo Jacob]

Hi Frank,

You are right on the slowness due to the 10/100 nic. A Gb nic on F11 
would help a lot.

The part about keeping everything from same manufacturer is new to me.
Although support would probably be easier when everything is from the 
same brand, I guess.
