  Greetings,

                    I have four 3Com 3C509 cards in my FreeBSD boxes and
worked fine, I installed them using the "ep" driver while setting the
hardware configuration . You can  configure your kernel typing  "-c"
when appears "boot:" on your screen then you get a prompt like
"config>" and then type "visual" ... After setting all up (be sure you
checked the address and IRQ) save the new configuration and it's done.


                If you have other cards then 3C509, take a look at
FreeBSD-FAQ pages 22, 23. There are a complete (I think) list with cards
supported and respective drivers.


                                                                    Luiz
