network cardrelated

following is the specification of the PCI ethernet card in my computer.
(obtained from /proc/pci file in Linux). Can you tell me
what is the specification of my PCI card.

Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 8).
IRQ 21.
Master Capable. Latency=64. Min Gnt=8.Max Lat=56.
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xf4102000 [0xf4102fff].
I/O at 0x2c00 [0x2c3f].
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xf4000000 [0xf40fffff].

i.e. what is the best network speed this card can give ?

Hi.

It's probably 100Mbps card, i.e.use eepro100 driver for it.

Works like a charm for me.
