That depends a bit on exactly which RealTek hardware you have.  
However, the drivers have undergone continuous development, so your
results are likely to be better with more recent FreeBSD code.

An examination of the code with that version and the one it was based
on could tell you what the changes were that RealTek made.  Then you
could see if those changes have made it into the latest version.

Good luck.

Hi!

I can't ssh into one of my machines anymore.
The only possible reason I can think of is that I played around
with it's IP. Does it have to be reset somehow?
Delete any references to it in ~/.ssh/known_hosts on any machine from 
which you wish to connect to the machine in question.

Also, try ssh -v ... to see why/when it fails.
