| Pretty much everything with WOL more recent than the 905B.
| The 'B' was one of the earliest WOL designs.
|
| Pick up a cheap rtl8139 or ADMtek NIC -- pretty all of the very-low-end
| NICs use one of rtl8139C, ADMtek AN985 or occasionally the NatSemi DP83815.

But I need a NIC with a BNC interface (10 Base 2) and WOL. As I know, the
rtl8139 only supports TP.
The 905B is the only NIC I know, that supports this connection.
