Have you looked at the manual page for this driver? (try running 'man rl' in a (x-)terminal). I quote: rl%d: watchdog timeout The device has stopped responding to the network, or there is a problem with the network connection (cable). I recently dumped an rl based card because it didn't work properly (upload speed sucked).

The rl driver supports some really terrible hardware, so I'm far from convinced that your custom kernel is causing the problems. Perhaps you could check by switching back to a GENERIC kernel for a while. -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area http://be-well.ilk.org/~lowell/ ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
