Hi All,

It worked fine for two weeks but I had a network outage 2 days ago then 
today. Tried to disable rxcsum and txcsum after the first one, didn't 
help. Don't know what else to do it's a shame that I can't use this card 
with fbsd i REALLY don't want to install linux instead but my production 
servers outages are not welcomed by the customers..
