I have a 3com 905b, the current model is a 3com 905C-TX like you mentioned. Which of those cards supports calculating ethernet checksums in hardware?

Based on my reading of 3c59x.c, 3c905B and 3c905C cards - but not the original 3c905 - will do TCP checksums in hardware (and thus enable zero-copy data transfer).

Regards,
Dan
