If it's just a home network, the only thing you have to really worry
about is the network speed and both cards operate at 100Mbps. The
other thing you *must* check is that both are supported by whichever
Linux version you are running, you can check that out at the home page
for the version you run eg Mandrake or Red Hat. Unless the drivers for
Linux come with the cards.

I want to change my nic card to a usb nic device,the first card is build
into the board
