Yes,

I have one at home working on a 10Mbit LAN (plugged into a BayNetorks
Model 800 Hub) and we've used them at work in Linux servers in both 10 and
100 Mb Networks (and dual 10/100) Mb Hubs with no problems. Just plug it
in and it works (well to date anyway). The only problem we've had is with
cabling.
