I find it usefull for plugging a computer in to mine and networking between the two for data-transfer of silly amounts of the stuff (ie hard disk contents). It's just as fast as plugging the disk into my pc but requires less screwdrivers
I used my second one to re-configure an additional router. But unless you have 2 networks or you're planning on making a gateway its not really needed.
yeah.... it's basically used mostly for what EPK said. but mostly if you don't have a router or something of the sort. if you have a router, data transfer can be done through the already existent network from the router.
Other than that...... maybe internet connection sharing without using a crappy USB connection to your modem? maybe NAS (Network Access Storage in case u didn't know)? maybe some motherboard manufacturer decided to say "HEY!!! i've got the most BRILLIANT idea....... let's add another gigabit lan port........ just to screw with people's heads!!"?
Nvidia is the internal side, and the *steevo draws a blank* is the DSL side. DSL sharing and routing offered, plus faster browsing and installs, as my system holds the up to date images.
I actually have two NICs on a machine here, but they are not gigabit. I have two seperate networks within my own at my condo, one is for testing without internet access, and the other is for production, and obviously has access
I may be upgrading some hardware in the future, and who knows, I may go dual gigabit :lick:

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
