That's an excellent suggestion, thanks.  I almost forgot about
some Intel NICs being a possibility as well.

In my DS15, I have a so-called Intel 82559ER (in Tru64 UNIX,
identified as:

"ee0: COMPAQ Intel 82559ER (10/100 Mbps) Ethernet Interface"

I guess that will also be a possibility.  But, I must say, the
dual-port one you mentioned looks quite interesting.
