HI All,

I got a Dlink DFE 530TX+ card that I just installed on
my NetBSD system.  During the boot, I noticed that it
was recognized correctly so I continued to edit
rc.conf to configure it for use. I entered the
following:

ifconfig_rtk0="ip address"

I then rebooted and tried to test the connection by
ftp'ing to the netbsd site.  Well, I got the following
error message quite a few times:

rtk0: watchdog timeout

What does this mean?  And how can I make the card
work? 

Also, their is a built in ethernet port which I then
configured so I can download some packages.  That port
worked perfectly fine.

Thanks,
J Silverman
