I upgraded to 7.1-PRERELEASE and it works now.
Thank you!

I'm running 7.0-RELEASE-i386 on Jetway's NC92-N230 mainboard. The board

three RTL8168/8111 NICs. Why would the three NICs work while the onboard

does not?

The on-board NIC is a different type to your expansion cards (note the
different 'chip=' values. Looking at the code, it appears that only
some variants of the RTL8168 are supported in 7.x. Unfortunately,
pciconf
doesn't report the actual hardware revision, so you can't tell from the
pciconf output whether it's supported or not.
Can you report the output of 'pciconf -r pci0:1:0:0 0x40' (which should
report the hw revision) and 'pciconf -r pci0:2:4:0 0x40' (which gives
me a double-check).
You could try booting -current and see if the on-board NIC works there -
the range of supported NICs has changed.

Please excuse any delays as the result of my ISP's inability to implement
an MTA that is either RFC2821-compliant or matches their claimed
behaviour.
Yes, 7.0-R is pretty old in terms of re(4) work. I believe yongari@
is still working on this driver. 7.1 is close enough for patching
with patches from http://people.freebsd.org/~yongari/re/
Currently development is stifled because he has to basically guess
the appropriate magic values for various PHY permutations in these
8111C/8168C gigabit cards everyone seems to be putting in their
motherboards these days.
