Hi,
I have a problem with a Xircom 10/100 CE3 network card, in that I cannot get
it to drive at 100Mbit works OK at 10Mbit. I have what claims to be a
10/100Base-TX adapter cable that I belive should support the 100Mbit
networking. I have my network plugged into a 100Mbit hub port. I get the
following from ifconfig:
xe0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

I am running FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE. On a Pentium III 400MHz system and 128MB
memory.
Another related question is I also have a 3Com 10/100 Base-TX card (Model
3CCFE575BT-D) are these supported as I get not a lot from pccardc dumpcis:-
Configuration data for card in slot 0
Tuple #1, code = 0xff (Terminator), length = 0
Thank you for any and all assistance.
David.
