I don't think so - as long as an Ethernet adapter card pretens to have
independent network interfaces, this shouldn't be a problem. I've yet
only used older SMC dual-port cards (DEC21040 based, I think the name
was something like 8432) and D-Link 570 TX (also DEC based, quad port,
recognized as four de type interfaces) and both run fine.

Regards,

Martin
