Hello All,

I currently have two pfSense boxes with Intel Gigabit cards.  The first is a
Dell Optiplex gx270 (Pentium 4, 512mb RAM).  It has one built-in Intel
Gigabit port and two dual-port PCI cards.  This gives me em0 - em4.  As far
as I can tell, this box is working perfectly.  The second is also a gx270
with one built-in gigabit port.  It has another single-port Intel Gigabit
card and a generic 10/100 card whose name I can't find that shows up as
fxp0.

I am now trying to set up a third box.  It is a Dell Optiplex gx240.  It has
an on-board 3Com 3C920-based 10/100 port.  I added a dual-port Intel card
(the same one as the first box).  Using em1 of that card works fine but when
I plug in em0, I start getting "em0: Watchdog Timeout" messages on the
console.

What should I look at to troubleshoot this?  Is it a problem with the
network card?

Moshe
