Hello, I had the aame problem of yours with the 3COM509B and I had to change the card. Seems like it is due to a buggy driver. I also experienced the same problem on Solaris 7 x86. I Suggest oyou to buy a cheaper but tested card like a DNET (DEC card) or a NE2000 PCI. I Als oexperienced this problem only wit ISA cards on FreeBSD. Your card is PCI or ISA ?
