Windows 7 and Linksys Network card

I just recently installed Windows 7 on one of my computers which had a Linksys NC100TX Network card in it. 7 will not load drivers for it and Linksys has no updated drivers for this card. I bought a brand new Linksys LNE100TX EtherFast card and that will not work with 7 either, it is not even listed on the box that it will work with Vista and I learned on the web that Linksys does not plan to make driver updates for these cards. So before you install 7 use the compatibility program and see if your Network card will work. I will no longer be buying any Linksys products. I bought a new D-Link Network card and it says on the box that it will work with Vista so it should work fine with 7, I ended up putting in a Realtech Network card in place of the Linksys and it work perfectly and they had new drivers for it that I downloaded and installed. I guess Linksys doe not give a hoot about their customers so why should I give a hoot about them. I can not believe they did not even update their drivers for Vista, sad shame on you Linksys.

    You made some good points there. I did a search on the topic and found most people will agree with your blog.
