Hi Ben, We have some of this card here at work, but we couldn´t test´em yet because the supposed host servers (HP DL380) didn´t recognize them. That seems to be a BIOS-related problem, though we´re using the newest one. Err, I guess this doesn´t help much, does it? :P Well, anyway, if you use a ML380 you already know what to expect. ;) Have luck, :) Tulio Ben Stuyts wrote: > Hi, > > I sent this originally to the -stable list, but maybe I will have > better luck here: > > I am about to upgrade one of our servers (running 4-stable) with a > 1000Base-T network card, and the 3Com 3C996B-T looks interesting. > This is for a small office server (e-mail, files, printers, > webserver) serving about 25 pc's running a variety of Win2K, FreeBSD > and Mac OS X. > > I found some messages in the past indicating there were some problems > with this card on FreeBSD.
