I have a Arris Cornerstone CM200 cable modem connected to my FreeBSD stable (cvsupped last week) box via UTP into a NE2000 compatible ISA Ethernet adaptor. The connection randomly dies. I can send pings out of it and see the Activity LED flash on the modem but the FreeBSD box never sees any replies. Doing "ifconfig ed1 down" followed by "ifconfig ed1 up" fixes it. It's been happening for about the last two weeks (so it happened before the most recent cvsup also). Does anybody have any suggestions?
