Hi.
   I'm using FreeBSD 2.2.6 with a 3com 905BTX network card, and I got
the driver compiled and it appears to be working ok (autoneg connects
to the hub correctly).. but I am having a problem...  here are some 
snips of rc.conf and the output of netstat -rn
   
rc.conf:
--------
network_interfaces="lo0 xl0"    # List of network interfaces (lo0 is  
ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1"   # default loopback device configuratio
fconfig_xl0="inet x.x.107.204 netmask 0xffffffff" # the 3com 905BTX

<snip>

defaultrouter="x.x.107.206"  # set to default gateway ( or NO )


netstat -rn
-----------
Internet:
Destination     Gateway            Flags     Refs     Use     Netif 
10.2.5.1        x.x.107.204        UH          1     1090      tun0
localhost       localhost          UH          0      461       lo0
x.x.107.200     ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff  UHLWb       0        3       xl0 =>
x.x.107.200/29  link#1             UC          0        0 
x.x.107.206     0:e0:29:15:56:ac   UHLW        0       14       xl0 34


BTW - 10.2.5.1 is me ppp'd in :)

Ok, now the problem is, whenever I ping x.x.107.206 I get no response.. 
(206 is an ISP hooked up to this machine through a hub..there is a win95 
machine plugged into the same hub that is working ok ) ping just sits 
there. Same result any way I try to access it any other way (as default 
route, dns, etc).. 

I'm pretty new to networking, so hopefully I'm just overlooking some
step... 

Please respond to nerohj@california.com

Any help is greatly appreciated! 

thanks,
