I am running FreeBSD 2.1.5-RELEASE, and I am getting the following
message upon boot-up:

Sep 22 13:51:19 trogon /kernel: vx0 <3Com 3c590 EtherLink III PCI> rev 0
int a irq 15 on pci0:17
Sep 22 13:51:19 trogon /kernel: utp[*UTP*] address %D
Sep 22 13:51:19 trogon /kernel: Warning! Defective early revision
adapter!


Now I have been getting that error ever since I installed FreeBSD. When
telnetting in, it goes just fine. Local hosts Ping to me around .7ms, so
everything is normal there. However, when trying to telnet out, there
are long pauses and delays. I can ping hosts just fine, no delays. It
seems the more data beingn transfered at once, the slower it takes. When
telnetting to a host with a small gettytab it goes just fine, then after
I log on and do an ls, it takes forever.

My question, is there anyway to fix this problem, without getting beta
2.2-CURRENT? Please help!
