Hello,

I have a problem with network card. From time to time kernel says

sk0: watchdog timeout
I just ran into the same issue. I have an ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe in my
desktop machine which runs FreeBSD 6.0+Xorg+Gnome. It has two on-board
NICs, the nvidia one and a Marvel one. The nvidia was one big disaster and
was giving me device timeouts so I never bothered with that one again.

I have an sk0 too on one of my computer's onboard A8V-DX which will timeout once in a while too. I found a way to reduce down time by modifying my rc.conf to force 'full-duplex 100Mbps'. Now, even when it goes into a watchdog timeout, I quickly get back my link within that second.

This is what my rc.conf line looks like:

ifconfig_sk0="inet 192.168.1.100 media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex netmask 255.255.255.0"
Thanks! Will give this a try
