The Realtek drivers appear to be somewhat buggy: the media detection doesn't always work as it should when using 10mbit hubs. Try adding something like the following to your interface configuration: media 10baseT/UTP (the complete line might read ifconfig rl0 inet 195.45.51.34 netmask 255.255.255.0 media 10baseT/UTP or whatever) Best regards, Gabriel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
