I've tried all possible combinations with media and mediaopts, and I get
nothing. When I try to set half-duplex it doesn't work at all.

I didn't mentioned before that under FreeBSD 4.10 everything worked
fine.

I found also some interesting (but not clear for me) behaviour of ping:

$ ping 213.25.86.88

I'm not local network, my IP is 192.168.3.13, 192.168.3.1 is my
gateway.=20
