Thank you for your help, Martin I just tried with a brand new Dell 2708 switch and the problem is still there. I just confirmed that the UP/DOWN occurs every 10 minutes (+- a few seconds).

RE: Link UP/DOWN problem with re0 on FreeBSD 7.1
If you do a dmesg are you also showing a watchdog time out for the nic ? I only ask as I am having the exact same problem with the exact same card and I have yet to find a solution, if I come across something I will let you know.
