Don't know if this will help.  I had an older Intel PCI card a while 
ago that would lock up a FreeBSD box.  On those (One box 4 nics) we had
to disable the wake on Lan features.  It was overly sensitive and would
try to wake up the box in the middle of a shutdown and lock it solid.
With the PCI cards you can/could get a dos program to "configure" the
nic itself (we had to use this to play with IRQ's) and there was also a
setting in there if I remember right that allowed us to kill wake on lan
at the nic level.
