I am using Realtek as well. Also, to avoid slow speeds, make sure that you're using the media type as: "Ethernet 10baseT/UTP" the line for the interface configuration in /etc/rc.conf should be something like: ifconfig_rl0="inet 296.124.47.8 netmask 255.255.255.0 media 10BaseT/UTP" Thanks, William Ashworth ----- Original Message ----- From: "Henk" To: Sent: Friday, April 04, 2003 4:29 PM Subject: adding realtec 8139NIC > Hello all, > > I used FreeBSD 4.7 RELEASE to build a router which is working fine.
