The driver works fine except the "bge0: Watchdog timeout", that will 
bring the interface down/up for a while. make it unstable for network 
share service.

This card works fine under windows and opensolaris. so I think this is
 a driver issue.

When I search by google. many users report this issue, from FreeBSD 7
 to Current. that is no workaround at this time except buy another
 card.
 
Regards.
