I've been trying to get 10MB full-duplex to work on my 3com 3c905 ethernet card, but have been getting sluggish response and lots of errors at the switch. At half-duplex I have no problems. It's irritating because it seems to work fine under NT ;-). I'm running 2.2.1; I'd like to know if a later release might work better. Searching the mailing list archives is interesting (but mostly out of date) and gives me no clear answer. Does anyone know? vx0 <3COM 3C905 Fast Etherlink XL PCI> rev 0 int a irq 10 on pci0:11 mii[*mii*] address 00:60:97:c2:7f:b0 daemon:/home/kehlet-> uname -a FreeBSD daemon 2.2-STABLE FreeBSD 2.2-STABLE #0: Tue Jun 10 11:25:52 PDT 1997 kehlet@daemon:/usr/src/sys/compile/DAEMON i386 In case it helps, I used the DOS util to set the card to "Max network perf", "full duplex", and "10 MB". Also, I don't have the choice to use any other ethernet card since this is my computer at work. Thanks very much, Steve Kehlet
