Barney The other nic is not in use right now. I tried switching them so see if one would work better than the other, but I didnt see any difference. The board is an intel http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/s3000ah/ Not sure if its wired as PCI-X or just a 32bit bus.

I have an igb as well as bge I can try later. ---Mike >_______________________________________________ >freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list >http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net >To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" -------------------------------------------------------------------- Mike Tancsa, tel +1 519 651 3400 Sentex Communications, mike@sentex.net Providing Internet since 1994 www.sentex.net Cambridge, Ontario Canada www.sentex.net/mike
