> Hi,
> 
> yesterday I bought a network card to connect a second PC 
> to my old machine.
> They had only one type of card in the store so I bought it anyway, 
> despite its rather high price of 37 Euro.
> 
> Today I took a closer look.
> It is an Intel PRO/100 S board packaged in 
> plastic pack, without docs.
> It comes with 3 wire cable labeled
> "BIZLINK" and has "TRIPLE DES" on a label.
> 
> As far as I can tell from a bit of Google
> research, it features hardware encryprtion/decryption.
> 
> Questions:
> - Can I use it under FreeBSD?

Yes, as an fxp(4).

> - Can I make use of that hardware acceleration?

Not under FreeBSD.

> - What is the 3 wire cable for?

For WOL.
