I am running into the following problems: I have ep0 configured (3com509), and with the right network, broadcast, gateway and netmask (at least they all worked under linux, which is the previous configuration of the system), and the interface is up, but pinging froma machine on the same repeater, sitting right next to the bsd system, the round trip time is in the order of minutes, like 64 bytes for 83 sections or something. Pinging from freebsd to other machines, I get the same problem. Anyone ran into this problem or know a fix? I already compiled the kernel once with nothing but the driver for 3com509, and it is still doing this. Thanks Benjie pls send reply to benjie@mit.edu
