Greetings, There seems to be heaps of people on the list reporting errors with em cards and FreeBSD 5.4 -stable-ish (as in cvsup-ed within the last couple of months). Are there many people running these ok? Perhaps is not the network card so much as some other element of the computer? Regarding the below issue- what about spanning tree? Is portfast enabled?
Regards,
Dave

now the EM problem. when i am running a very high network load (streaming video, dumping ALOT of data across the network, etc) the network card disconnects (i loose pings and all my transfers drop) and 15-20 seconds later it pops up on the console with "em0: Link is up 1000 Mbps Full Duplex" and then it starts working again. again im at a dead wall and really want my network to work properly so i can do what i need to do.

Hello!
I've same problems on 5.4-STABLE:
/var/run/dmesg.boot:

/etc/rc.conf:
ifconfig_em0="inet ... netmask ... media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex"

Sep 20 18:48:16 tak kernel: em0: Link is up 100 Mbps Full Duplex

I changed ports: 100M to 1GB and back; changed cables, but...
