As you can see, it works on my system, which is a Amptron 830LM and is based on the SiS-735. The MAC address is what the motherboard documentation tells me it should be. sis0: <SiS 900 10/100BaseTX> port 0xb800-0xb8ff mem 0xcffcd000-0xcffcdfff irq 5 at device 3.0 on pci0 sis0: Ethernet address: 00:d0:09:d7:58:60 miibus0: <MII bus> on sis0 sis0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 ether 00:d0:09:d7:58:60 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>) status: active I temporarily hooked up that connector for simple testing. I can ping it from my other computers. I don't have a firewall connection setup for it and have downed the NIC rather than setup the rest of the networking.
