I have been using the D-Link Ethernet Pocket LAN adaptor for the last few
weeks. It is a well engineered and built device, and has performed well
in my application. I am using their packet driver with it. A bit slower
than a NE1000 (about 25% slower), but much more convinient.

The address I have for them is:

USA			UK			International
D-Link Systems, Inc	D-Link (U.K.) Ltd.	Datex Systems, Inc.
5 Musick		23A lyttelton Rd	15-4, FL
Irvine, CA  92718	London, N2 0DN		No. 1, Fu Hsing North Rd.
USA			UK			Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C.

(yes, I think that UK postal code looks suspicious, but that is the
way it is printed on their installation guide). Sorry, no telephone
numbers.
