Hi
I hope someone will be able to tell me what i'm doing wrong here.
I'm trying to get an SMC9332BDT to work under 2.2.1-RELEASE (at 
10Mbps). The card seems to be probed fine, and is initially being set 
to 100Mbps. The 'Link Integrity Indicator' (according to the manual) 
LED goes out as soon as the probe takes place and doesn't come back 
on. I have used 
	ifconfig de0 -link2
to try and switch it over to 10Mbps and get kernel messages stating 
this is taking place. From this point on 
	de0: transmission timeout
messages are displayed although thay are not displayed before i try 
to switch the port. 

I have tried four different cards just to make sure it wasn't a 
dodgey card and used the SMC diagnostic program under DOS to transmit 
packets from the card which i can see with tcpdump on another 
machine....

Any ideas??
Thanx in advance for your time.
andy

BTW this card is UTP only, and i've searched through the old postings 
on www.freebsd.org but can't seem to find a solution.
