I'm pretty sure the Intel EHCI chip doesn't work in FreeBSD, at least it 
doesn't for me (and I've seen postings suggesting that the same is true in 
NetBSD as well).

The only way I've managed to avoid this problem is to disable EHCI support in 
the kernel, or plug the device into a USB 1.x hub.  In both cases you're 
limited to USB 1 speeds, though :(
