I have FreeBSD 2.2.2, DLink DEC Tulip 21140AE REV-2C Chipset with the
if_de.c from Matt Thomas' site, 3am-software.com.  I have tried with the
21140AC REV-1B Chipset, and am getting the same problems:  It's fine on a
bootup, but after a few hours, the ethernet just stops responding.  Their
is still a link light on my hub, put it is not pingable, and tests from
the console are useless.  ifconfig de0 shows the interface as being up,
however I'm seeing a flag "OACTIVE" and I'm not sure that is supposed to
be there.  Has anyone had trouble with these cards/driver before, and does
anyone have a solution?
