I'm having issues with the following NIC cards:
Sun Quad Fast Ethernet - not recognized
Intel Pro 100 - recognized, but doesn't seem to work - used it as my LAN
interface - connected it back to back with another maching using a X-over
cable and configured both on the same net - couldn't access

the freebsd device name is hme:
The hme(4) driver supports the on-board Ethernet interfaces of many Sun
UltraSPARC workstation and server models. Cards supported by the
hme(4) driver include:
* Sun PCI SunSwift Adapter
* Sun SBus SunSwift Adapter .( hme. and .SUNW,hme.)
*
Quoth J B:
As for the Intel Pro - different system - that system I was using 1 Intel
Pro 100 (stand alone), 1 Linksys Fast eth (shows up as dc0) and a 3com 3c509
In my case, the device name is fxp

I have added device hme and the kernel is currently compiling. Unless
it errors out expect to see this in the next version.

To unsubscribe,
yes - it shows up as fxp0 - but then I get errors loading microcode - and
it just don't work on the network

sounds like the nic is flaky. i'm running the same NIC on my pfsense
(as the LAN) and it works
I suspect the microcode is borking the NIC.Do you have a newer
NIC that you could try? I would rather not remove the microcode
support as it works wonders for newer cards.

Is there anyway to turn off the microcode on a per/NIC basis? I only have
older Pro100 cards - (trying to recycle some old equipment and make it
usefull again)

Not easily. The code detects that you have a fxp driver and then
tries to init the code. I suppose we could add a tag to
systemdo_not_use_nic_microcode or something...

Okay, try the newest /etc/inc/pfsense-utils.inc and add this tag to system
do_not_use_nic_microcode/

3c509 or 3c905?
The 509 is an ISA card which means you need to run the 3com util
3c5x9cfg (I think that's what its called) to make sure you don't have
any irq/io conflicts.
might have jumpers on the card in lieu of that, a few of them did.
Might also
The issue is the Intel Pro - not the 3C509 (I have to use this until the
QFE card is supported - because I only have 3 pci slots, and need 4
interfaces) The 3C509 is an ISA card - and works just fine
