About this tag
The Netgear FA311 is a legacy PCI network interface card that users have worked to get functioning on Windows 7 RC builds, particularly build 7100. Discussions cover driver installation challenges, including using Windows 2000 drivers as a workaround, and troubleshooting connectivity issues such as APIPA addresses (169.x.x.x) and no internet access.

The card is noted as being widely produced, and users share step-by-step solutions for achieving network connectivity on modern Windows versions with this older hardware.
