Subject:   weird ethernet and router problem
Message-ID:  <199604191511.KAA17734@galileo.mr.net>

hi,
	i have been happily using freebsd 2.1R for about a month and recently 
switched from a 28.8 modem connection to an ISDN connection using an ascend 
pipeline 75 router.
	
	i am seeing some very weird problems and i was hoping someone might have 
some ideas.  the router is connected to the 3c509 card in my freebsd machine 
with a reversed twisted pair cable.  the problem was identical when using a 
cisco 753 router in hub mode with a normal twisted pair cable.
	
	none of these problems show up when i use the ppp connection.
	
	
	thanks in advance,
	b3n

when pinging the router from outside i get this:

but when pinging from outside to my freebsd machine i get:

and when pinging from my freebsd machine to the ethernet interface on the router 
(or anything past the router) i get this:

black: {6} ping 206.145.117.1

64 bytes from 206.145.117.1: icmp_seq=10 ttl=255 time=870.369 ms

this 10ms per ping decerement continues until the ping time is 10ms, at which 
time it starts over again at 1000ms.
