Mine got so bad it was disconnecting every quest , and 2 days ago could not log in , was getting the unknown entity etc and dropping out . Yesterday I bought a new network card and all my problems have gone away :) the old card was the Netgear fa311 , blizz tech support dont like this card at all , not suprised , it must be over 4 years old , my broadband providers suggested throwing it in the bin and getting a new one , so I did . Oh happy days :)

The FA311 is junk as is the FA312. I had to ditch mine becuase a it would prevent my system from doing a restart. The system would restart the video card would initialize and then the system would just hang (Asus A7M266 mobo) until I hit the poower or reset button on the case. This wasn't a horrible problem for awhile as my machine usuaully runs until I install some software that requries a restart, but it got too annoying when I was doing some hardware upgrades, so I plunked $15 on a US Robotics el cheapo (but not a host based card) and have been happy ever since.

So yeah, network cards can cause problems in video games.

It's all just zeroes and ones and duct tape in the end.
