Just to confirm...
The Kingmax card I'm currently using (and I have a spare one sitting 
in front of me) is labled Kingmax Fast Ethernet Adapter 10/100Mbps 
and it definately uses the Realtech 8139 chipset (the chip on the 
network card is actually a Realtech 8139C) these work and cost 
approximately $25 (depending on where you buy) for a few extra 
dollars you can get a similar Netcomm card but a lot of them are 
using the exact same chips.
