Greetings, I have a Accton 100baseTX nic that uses the RealTek 8129/8139 chipset. The nic works fine if I plug it into a 10mbit hub but as soon as I plug it into a switch ( 3Com Baseline 10/100 ) which I use internally for ftp'ing it starts transferring data ok and then slowly dies. After awhile it will not permit me at all to connect and I have to manually bring down the interface using ifconfig and then bring it back up before I can reconnect. I have configured my kernel with the correct drivers ( device rl ). I have 2 identical nic's in the same machine and they both give the same problem and I have tried several ftp clients. I'm using 4.6 Stable.
Has anyone experienced similar problems with these nic's ? Any help, suggestions would be appreciated. Kind regards, Nelis To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
