FreeBSD router 5.3-RELEASE-p5 FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE-p5 #0: Thu Feb  3 18:12:27 CET 2005     nicolas@router:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/20050203-fb53  i386
>Description:
The machine is a router with 3 network card 3COM 3C905B. Many configuration settings have been tested without success (router interface and switch configured with autonegocation or with 100-full).
The cable is good, have been changed and tested with Waveteak tool.

The speed is very slow:

$ wget ftp://ftp.oleane.net/pub/debian-cd/images/3.0_r4/i386/debian-30r4-i386-binary-1.iso
--15:57:48--  ftp://ftp.oleane.net/pub/debian-cd/images/3.0_r4/i386/debian-30r4-i386-binary-1.iso
           => `debian-30r4-i386-binary-1.iso'

and there is a lot of input errors:

$ netstat -I xl0
Name    Mtu Network       Address              Ipkts Ierrs    Opkts Oerrs  Coll
xl0    1500 <Link#3>      00:04:75:d9:71:ab 296231311 245239 271395708    12     0

All tests have been done on the router. It's not a problem of slow upstream, the router is connected on a 100Mbps/s dedicated link and it's work fine with Netgear GA620 network card.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install a 3COM 3C905B and download a file from a FTP server.
You will get a lot of input errors and the download will be very slow.
