At this price level, you can also consider the Intel PRO1000/MT (part number is PWLA8492MT) which has two Gig-E ports (copper), is well supported under FreeBSD by the Intel-supported "em" driver, and costs $174 (list price, if you shop eg. on yahoo you can find it cheaper than that). The good thing of this cart is that it works at Gig speed, and it is widely available so hopefully it won't disappear from the market by the time you place your order. cheers luigi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
