It simply just disconnects from the internet and if i do a ifconfig dc0 down and then ifconfig dc0 up, it comes back up again i have tried 3 different network cards. if i use a 10mbit card it doesn't happen, but on a 100mb card it lasts like 3 hours and then falls over i took a look at /var/log/messages but it shows nothing if anyone knows anything about this please let me know, i have to get it fixed, but i do not even know where to begin kind regards wayne To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
