For the sake o
YOu can try ng_fec which is Etherchannel, not sure if it works in FreeBSD
5.x properly, it did in 4.x

yep... $25 for a card, and $100 will get you a 8 port switch that will
do jumbo frames (MTU sizes of 9000 and more instead of the default
1500)... and you can even use the same wiring, no need for cat5e,

Hello,
Probably a stupid question, but I've not had much luck searching for the
answers (probably because I'm not using the correct search terminology).
Is there a way to bond multiple network cards together, so as to get a
higher aggregate bandwith? And also, if it is possible, is it recomm
