Use PV drivers (like http://www.meadowcourt.org/downloads/) for
Windows, it should automatically use the vif interface (the one you
set a name on domU config file).
For Linux (and possibly others), you might end up with two devices:
One identifies itself as realtek card, the other uses xen-vnif driver.
You need to make sure the one with xen-vnif is used. See
http://pastebin.com/fb6fe631 for example (I blacklisted realtek
modules to do that).
