Whether those specs are the same as the ones that the sis network adapter driver in FreeBSD uses is entirely a different question. >What do I do if disabling the USB hardware doesn't fix the problem? file a pr with as much information as possible and make sure when your doing it that you CC the sis driver author.

It's possible that this behavior can be fixed in the driver, and certainly it can be added to the hardware tips file as well as the man page for the driver. The driver author is listed in the man page.
