FBSD-7.0-Release Sun Feb 24 2008

>Description:
After install, NFE driver for nVidia nForce MCP55 Networking Adapter using Marvell 88E1149 Gigabit ethernet chip appears to fail to completely set up ethernet interface. IFCONFIG shows UP with proper IP, NETMASK, BROADCAST, MEDIA values with active STATUS. Yet, no external network connection works. Installing Red Hat Enterprise on same machine IS able to make external network conections.

NFE driver chosen by system - not Admin.
