I am using this machine as a gateway for my network. I have two Linksys Etherfast, 10/100 PCI PNP Cards. On the box it says they are compatible with various versions of unix, and I'm sure they do work with FreeBSD. One of them is going to my network HUB, the other is going to my cable modem. I have already edited and recompiled the kernel with PnP support and such. However, when it boots up it reads both cards (I imagine this is both) pn0 and pn1, but after each is  a line saying something about not being able to map ports. Thus there is no pn0/1 interface. I have searched the internet for the past few weeks for documentation, but none is to be found. Even Linksys themselves cannot give me any help.
Any information relating to this problem, or getting the cable modem operating (or the ethernet cards, since I need those working first) is EXTREMELY appriciated, thanks!
