Sorry uname -a says: FreeBSD shekondar.heanet.ie 4.6-RC FreeBSD 4.6-RC #0: Fri May 24 15:48:31 I= ST 2002 =20 I have seen this happen with the fxp interface as well and I have seen this mail http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=3D22093+0+current/freebsd-isp which leads me to believe that switching to using the intel pro1000 car don the box will do me no good either.
