If anybody could provide a solid solution, I'd be most grateful.

I have this  box that works as an Internet router and I have two NICs=20
in it, 3com 3C996-SX and 3C996-T, the later is bge1 on which I get=20
this persistent ERROR below, the first one, bge0 is OK!

The result of this error is blackouts and instability of the Internet=20
