How can I reset an ethernet card (3COM XL905) without rebooting? I tried
ifconfig with "media" and "mediaopt" options. Although "ifconfig xl0"
shows the change, the ethernet switch it's connected to says xl0 didn't
change @#$%!. (The switch is okay.) I know the switch is correct because
the speed of traffic went down the tubes with "collision" indicator almost
lit solid (at the switch) when there's good amount of traffic. I tried
telnet though that interface and responses are literally measured in
seconds.
