(Answer) (Category) NetMAXFAQ : (Category) Configuration :
My SMC EtherPower (DEC 21041A) Ethernet card doesn't work!
Applies to:
                  NetMAX BLD475

Some of the DEC cards, looks like 21041A based, have auto-sense problems: they will enable the AUI port, even when it does not have one!

For current users, the fix should be to put the following line into /etc/rc.conf:

  ifconfig_de0="media 10baseT/UTP"
and modify the network_interfaces line to look like:
  network_interfaces="de0 generic lo0"

Or request an update to the 3.3 FreeBSD kernel.
