Hi!

Well, do you mean with "compiled its driver" that they provide some own
driver?

Ok, in order to be able to help you, we  need at least a dmesg with the
card, and the _exact_ message, and also a pciconf -lv will be helpful.
Because of rebranding of network chips one can never be sure what
chip-revision you get with those relabelled products.

Please boot a kernel.GENERIC and post that dmesg.
