My NIC gets its DHCP address successfully. However, when it starts up the connection to ftpN.freebsd.org, the link light on ye olde cable modem blinks out periodically--like the think is going ifconfig down and up repeatedly. I've tried using "media 10baseT/UTP -mediaopt full-duplex" as extra ifconfig commands to prevent autoneg. No effect. This is a tl0 flavor NIC that works just dandy in 3.4-STABLE (no link-light cycling, errors counts low to nonexistent). Any ideas? The uname -a is shown below, per the FAQ, FWIW. % uname -a FreeBSD firewall.painless-computing.com 3.4-STABLE FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE #9: Mon Ap r 10 02:40:19 GMT 2000 root@firewall.painless-computing.com:/usr/src/sys/com pile/FIREWALL i386 --Pete ----- Pete Thomas, MCSE Painless Computing, Inc. http://www.painless-computing.com ------_=_NextPart_000_01BFA2A8.12861330 Content-Type: application/octet-stream; name="Peter Thomas (E-mail).vcf" Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="Peter Thomas (E-mail).vcf" BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:2.1 N:Thomas;Peter FN:Peter Thomas (E-mail) ORG:Painless Computing, Inc.
