Subject:   Weird problem with ether card
Message-ID:  <199512042350.AAA00271@keltia.freenix.fr>

When  an  Ethernet card begin  to  see or emit   packets like the following
during a simple "ping", is the card dead or what ? Some packets go fine for
a while then lose some then is good again ad vitam eternam.

The card on the BSD side is a WD 8013EP which worked fine till sunday.

The other side is a sparcbook but it shouldn't matter.

I've changed cables, changed to  the AUI port  with an external transeiver,
used RJ45 twisted cable with 10BT transeiver but no change.

ed0 at 0x300-0x31f irq 10 maddr 0xcc000 msize 16384 on isa
ed0: address 00:00:c0:4d:ed:08, type WD8013EP (16 bit)
