Re: Ethernet.

I prefere Belkin products personally, but you can get network cards from £6 in Pcworld.

Re: Ethernet.

It really shouldn't matter which brand of card you purchase; I would recommend purchasing the cheapest you can find so long as it says it's compatible with your operating system (e.g. Windows XP). A £6 one from pcworld would be a good option.
