Help, I've installed FreeBSD 2.2.7 on a Pentium 300 using a 3com 3C509B Etherlink III network card. My rc.conf file has it properly configured (ifconfig_ep0="inet myIPaddress netmask 255.255.255.0"), but I can only ping my host ip. The host is connected to another host via a hub, but the indicator lights on the hub are not lit. This, to me indicates that the network card is not configured correctly... I've read some BSD news articles that state that FreeBSD 2.2.7 does not support the 3C509b card, although the 3C509 is claimed to be supported. I am beginning to believe the product documentation is wrong.. But, what is the solution?? Is there a driver available? Thanks for your help, Rick ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
