Hi

I've recently bought a Netgear FA511 adapter to replace a 3com 589 stupidly=
 dead (problem between keyboard and chair). My thinkpad was a 600E one, I'v=
e encoutered some random freeze with the FA511 adapter. I think this was a =
thinkpad 600E relative bug. I've check the card on a thinkpad R51 and some =
ACER laptop and freeze disappears.

If I where you, I wouldn't buy this card for a tp570 due to the similar age=
 of both 600E and 570. =20
