I have almost the exact configuration. I get a transmission timeout too,
but it doesn't slow down ping and ftp (or have any other effect). However,
when my routes out to the Internet are down everything gets real slow. I
have always figured this was because the daemons could not do reverse
lookups properly. Try ping with the -n option which (I think) tells it to
do numeric output only and no reverse lookup. Not really my area, but the
transmission timeout doesn't seem to be a problem.
Alex.

Subject: de0 - Spoke too Soon....
I spoke too soon about my de0 working. I am running a Pent Pro 200 with 64
meg and 2.2.2 FreeBSD. I had problems making by linksys 100BaseTX card
work as 10BaseT. I fixed that (with the help of this list) by doing an
"ifconfig de0 -link2" to turn 10BaseT on.
Now my problem is no matter what I do I get a "de0: transmission timeout"
I can ping it ok, but I can't ping or ftp or anything off of the machine.
An ifconfig -a looks like:
de0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
Inet 192.168.1.5 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255
Ether 00:40:05:36:b4:bf.
On startup the Kernel messages are:
de0 <Digital 21140A Fast Ethernet> rev 34 int a irq 11 on pci0:13
de0: 21140A p10-100Mb/s] pass 2.2
de0: address 00:40:05:36:b4:bf
de0: enabling 100baseTX port
Any More Ideas?
Thanks...
Jim...
