Is your "hub" a multi-port repeater or a switch? If it's a repeater (which is what most people now refer to as a hub) then you have a collision domain and the internal network card in your FBSD box needs to be set to half-duplex also. -Mitch To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
