Hello,
my network card is failing - dmesg is full of this:
re0: PHY write failed
re0: reset never completed!
re0: reset never completed!
re0: PHY write failed

It can work nicely for days (although the server is not yet in production, so there
is little to no traffic) and then starts failing. What could be the problem?
It's FreeBSD 7.0 with this card:
re0@pci0:4:1:0: class=0x020000 card=0x816910ec chip=0x816910ec rev=0x10 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Realtek Semiconductor'
device = 'RTL8110SB Single-Chip Gigabit LOM Ethernet Controller'
class = network
subclass = ethernet
"ifconfig re0":
re0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
options=399b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,TSO4>
ether 00:0e:2e:cc:1e:c9
inet 192.168.2.10 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.2.255
media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseTX <full-duplex>)
status: active
The hardware is a PC with Asus P5K-SE motherboard.
Thanks,
Nejc
