I recently bought a re(4) NIC to replace the unsupported on-board NIC of a motherboard. I've only had access to 100 Mbit/s connections so far though, so I can't tell for sure how it behaves in Gbit/s links. FWIW, it works like a charm in the 100 Mbit/s network I've used it so far. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
