Do a traceroute to various sites to determine if a router or gateway somewhere is goofing you up. If not, look at an interrrupt conflict with the 509. BTW: That card is real buggy on FreeBSD. Get an SMC PCI card. On my net, I see ping returns on 1.8 to 2.3 ms. Also, ping the ip address directly. If it works with the ip address, it's IN-ADDR.ARPA that's messing you up. -Craig =================================================================== Orbit Internet Email: craigs@os.com 400 Grove Street Phone: (508) 753-8776 Worcester, MA 01605 http://www.os.com/
