Good morning, I am building a 3 axis router with hybrid motors, I am looking for controllers and I came across the kit 5i25-7i76 that seems to be easier to setup, also saw 7i76E for the same price all in one ethernet card, which do you recommend? Is 7i76e easy to set up? Does the linuxcnc wizard configurator work on this board?

There is a 7i96 that is cheaper and has everything you need and more, ethernet only.

Another Ethernet option to consider is the 7i96.

I would say the Eithernet options are a little trickier to set up. Because you have to properly configure the network cards in Linux to make sure that Linux doesn't try to use the one used for Linuxcnc for anything else.
