couple of NetGears had problems, funny thing was they had problems talking

The NIC has been tested with other switches and routers and found to be
working. And yes, I had set the NIC's properties to 100Mbps Full-Duplex
but
it doesn't help.

Could you please give me some model numbers from the manufacturers that
you
have mentioned? Only if you're sure if the devices work with Vista.

Networking is based on hardware and on protocols - if it's going to work
on any switch it should work on all of them. That being said, there are
cheap, crappy hardware - belkin, hawking, draytech, etc...

I've never seen a D-Link or Netgear switch not work with all network
hardware.

It's only a Vista issue if you have bad drivers or a bad NIC.
