Yes, you're right - that's interesting... I only can state that with 7.0-RELEASE and with 7.0-STABLE-200807 (07/15/08) it doesn't work. _But_ on 2008-07-15 there was a change made to the re driver which is relevant for the RTL8168 as you can see here: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/dev/re/if_re.c Maybe with the current if_re.c it works and to test this I could build a new kernel from CVS but I come home not until September. :-( The only difference between our NICs which I see is the revision. Since the revision of your chip is 0x01, the NIC's revision on my MoBo is 0x02 ... Maybe that's the difference? Thanks for your statement!
