The vx driver doesn't work with later 3C90x cards, including the
3C900B.  You'll need the xl driver which is part of 2.2.8 and
3.x (and has support back to 2.2.5).  It is available from the
author's site at: http://www.freebsd.org/~wpaul/3Com/ and comes
with full instructions for installation.  Works like a charm.
