> > I'm after some help on what gigabit ethernet card is supported on FreeBSD. > I'm using FreeBSD4.2-STABLE. Avoid the Intel cards; go with the Alteon-based or SysKonnect cards. (NetGear and 3com, amongst others, make cards based on the Alteon chipset.) You should avoid the Intel cards because Intel themselves refuse to release sufficient documentation to produce an efficient driver. -- ... every activity meets with opposition, everyone who acts has his rivals and unfortunately opponents also. But not because people want to be opponents, rather because the tasks and relationships force people to take different points of view.
