 if_bridge(4) should do most of what you need, and even 
 implements spanning tree, but it might take a little work to 
 make sure that the wired connection gets the traffic when present...

Thanks Lowell.  It seems like you are the only one who replied.  I
tried if_bridge(4) but I don't think I got the configuration right, and
Worse I ended up blowing out my wireless NIC... it no longer is
able to ping local IP addresses but I can still surf the Internet.

So for me I'm out of it.  But for others is there a HOWTO?
This has got to be a common problem for notebook and laptop
users with a built-in NIC and a built-in or cardbus wireless NIC.

Thanks in advance for any replies.

notebook multi-homed question

2006-02-04 Thread Robert Ken Francis 
Hello,
This is probably a common hardware configuration.  I have a wireless NIC in my 
notebook
and a built-in NIC.  My wireless NIC is 10 times slower than my built-in NIC so 
I prefer
to just plug in the built-in NIC when I can.

I would like to have them both going to the same router.  In my Windows 
partition I have
a Network Bridge to bridge together the NICs.  The soft bridge has its own IP 
address.
The advantage is that I don't have to configure anything or do anything.  It 
just works.
Is there a software bridge like this in FreeBSD?
Thanks
Rob

ata2-master: FAILURE

2005-08-27 Thread Robert Ken Francis 
I have failures like the below:

ata2-master: FAILURE - SETFEATURES SET TRANSFER MODE status=51READY,DSC,ERROR 
error=4ABORTED

What do I do to fix these failures?  All of the FAILURE drives are on my 
Adaptec ATA RAID 1200A card.  My secondary built-in IDE
is dead so I have to use this card as an IDE replacement.

Thanks,
Rob
