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
in it, 3com 3C996-SX and 3C996-T, the later is bge1 on which I get
this persistent ERROR below, the first one, bge0 is OK!
The result of this error is blackouts and instability of the Internet
connections!
