You can check this and eventualy report to http://www.freebsd.org/platforms/amd64.html > And last question: what traffic shaping you use?

I'm using pppoed on cable network and traffic shaping & QoS was a part of Dosis standard. But IPFW is great solution, you can check WARTA on http://www.hpi.net/whitepapers/warta/ > Thank You > Best Regards, > Ovidiu > >
