 This is a known problem with the 3Com driver.
 
 This bug is a duplicate of:
 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/18558
 
 The problem is that receiving is dead slow, even though sending is
 running at full speed.
 
 The problem can be partialy fixed if you lower the receive buffers,
 but that won't eliminate it completely. (instead of getting 200kb/s
 you'll get 1mb/s etc).
 
 I'm running a 3Com 3c905-TX Fast Etherlink XL under fbsd 4.7-R,
 which is connected to a Netgear Switch, 100mbit full-duplex.
