 Hi!
 
 I have the Via Epia too, and unfortunately exactly the same problems with the vr0 device (FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE). The D-Link 530TX NIC based on the same chipset (Via RhineII) seems to have had this problem, I don't know if it's fixed yet. Linux or Windows seems to work fine with this hardware, so it must be some sort of driveproblem.
 
 The problem again: Under heavy load the card somehow disable itself. A simple 'ifconfig up' fixes the problem. Running in 10baseT makes the problem show up less often.
 
 Too bad really, the Via Epia is very nifty. I don't want to spoil the whole thing by running linux ;-)
 
 regards
 /johan
