This is for my older computer, a Dell GX1 PIII. My internet download speed is only about 30mb.
Will an ethernet card such as the 3Com 3C905-TX give me any advantages in surfing speed, browser-opening speed, etc? Or are these add-on cards solely for when and if the present connection doesn't work?
My reasoning is that the new card might free up processor speed by assuming network connection
duties. My interface is PCI.
