used eth0 on a RaQ2, I have never restored a Qube2, although I do have one!
I just checked the Qube2 and eth0 is the primary interface, so I would say that
is the one to use.

I think all the Netgear FA310-TX are tulip-21143 based, I think Cobalt says that
to distinguish
the driver from the generic 'tulip driver' "Lite-ON".
I would download the latest 'tulip' driver from
http://www.netgear.com/support/support.shtml
Somewhere I read that the 'public-domain' tulip driver that comes with most
linux distros will not
work properly. I used the driver from netgear, not the driver supplied with my
RH-6.1 system, I wrote the new
driver over the RH tulip.o file.
Best Wishes!
