Hmm. I have an ex0 at pci0 dev 9 function 0: 3Com 3c905B-COMBO 10/100 
Ethernet (rev. 0x0). I have to manually set it to 100baseTX because when I 
let it autonegotiate it gets 100baseTX-FDX which seems to work at first 
but after some time it gets terribly slow (a few kb/s). I always blamed 
the switch for it, but maybe it's the card or the driver after all...

kind regards,
dieter
