I upgraded to 7.1-PRERELEASE and now it works.

Thank you!

 You can probably copy the if_re driver from -STABLE to your source tree
 and 
 recompile the kernel, or simply update to 7-STABLE.
 
 Hope this helps,

Why would the three NICs work while the onboard NIC does not? I would
imagine the same driver services both controllers. Do I need to assign an
interface to the device somehow?

Thank you!

Aloha,

I use the same PCI cards in a number of servers. All work fine. But on 
board ones are only 100 so I dont use them.


However I notice that the on board nic in your case uses a different 
chipset:


chip=0x816810ec is onboard.
chip=0x816710ec is slot pci's.

I dont know what this means in respect to operation problems though.
