Hello, I think it is very buggy. I had that ethernet card on my FreeBSD box. First of all it was slow and I had often problems of network hangs, the driver or the card itself (I dunno which of the two or both ?) is very buggy, so I had to change ethernet card. Now with a very economic ethernet card PCI NE2000 compatible I really go better, and I do not have troubles anymore. Rick On Thu, 10 Dec 1998, Igor B.
