I had this same issue with an Intel Pro 1000 nic. I just downloaded/installed the current driver from Intel and all was good.

Support seems to be in HEAD and therefore 6.x already. It looks like 5 has simply been missed. I suspect all that is needed in the 5 branch are the following changes, though that is untested: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/cvs-all/2005-May/121728.html I actually have one of the affected cards which I was planning to use in a 5-STABLE machine in the (semi-)near future, thanks for pointing out the issue!

Hmm, you can try asking on stable@ or current@ perhaps. I'm not sure who the correct person to talk to about em(4) is these days.
