The original poster asked about the 509B. 3COM has a wonderful model numbering system, don't they? Someone will buy another 3COM NIC around here only over my dead body, but I do use one 3C509B (a.k.a. EtherLink III) in a FreeBSD 3.1-STABLE box and it has been working just fine. -- Chris Dillon - cdillon@wolves.k12.mo.us - cdillon@inter-linc.net FreeBSD: The fastest and most stable server OS on the planet.
