    I think you miscalculate, that bus can transfer 532 MB/sec, Gigabit
    Ethernet tops out at 125 MB/sec at absolute maximum and it's difficult
    to achieve that in practice.

    And what lspci reports is merely that the device supports 66MHz bus
    speed. That doesn't mean it doesn't support higher speeds and that
    doesn't mean that's what it's running at.
