That’s too bad. I had a recent bad experience w/ a WiFi card, and I hoped that was a one-off since it was a budget chip. But you and someone else brought up more recent examples, so maybe Intel has lost its NIC crown.
Who should we look to now? I just want a solid NIC on Linux.

The Realtek RTL8125B on my year-old motherboard has been doing fine with Linux’s r8169 driver.
I’ve only used it at 1gbit/second, though; I haven’t tested its 2.5gbit mode.
