The AOPEN MX3S microATX motherboard has 815E and one 82562 ethernet. http://www.aopen.com/products/mb/mx3s.htm Their spec says: On Board LAN: ICH2 Integrated MAC+ Intel 82562ET/EM PHY onboard for 10/100Mbps Ethernet I have boards with both EM and ET variants and these work with fxp driver from 4.5-RELEASE-p4 and eepro100 driver from Linux 2.4.18. Have not used Tyan motherboards though. In message <001b01c25d75$f02d90b0$0200a8c0@beast>, "Paul A. Howes" writes: >Greetings All, > >I am planning to build a new firewall system around FreeBSD.
