Hi,

I would like to see the "we recommend" message changed. It is much
better to write "which hardware is worth a recommendation" because there
is no "we".

An also not so good point is the table at the bottom of the page. It
would be much better to add this information to the table over here
(http://wiki.ipfire.org/en/hardware/networking). It is not very easy to
maintain redundant information and it is also not very easy for the user
to join all this information together. You know what I mean...

Another side node would also be interesting. You should consider adding
this: Vendors of hardware with controller chips provide their own
drivers in the kernel (Intel, etc.). Most of the cheaper ones do not and
so the quality is not as good as the first ones.
