The correct link is <http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=6138>;  
(I assume).

I'm quoting relevant parts from the forum post:

I'm guessing that you're trying DHCP on de0? What's in /etc/rc.conf?  
Does it work if you assign an address manually? If not, can you see  
any packets arriving on the interface with tcpdump? You can also try  
to fiddle with the interfaces full-duplex setting.

If this should be a problem with the de driver, someone will likely  
know more details about the hardware, so the output of pciconf -vl  
should be interesting, as well as dmesg output from a working FreeBSD  
(i.e. 6.4 or 7.x).

What interrupt do other OSes report for the card? irq 1 can't be  
right. Or is the dmesg line cut off? There should be further output  
after the irq, like "at device n.m on pci0"


HTH,
Stefan
