help with corrupted MAC error

Hi -

I need some help please.  I'm running FreeBSD 5.3 on an xSeries 345.   
I am not running 5.4 as I need to use some software that currently  
supports 5.3.  I have a clean installation yet when I attempt to do  
large file transfers (I am doing "make install" in the ports tree)  
the transfer dies and I am disconnected from my SSH login with:

perl-5.8.5.tar.bz2                             43% of 9242 kB  115  
kBps 00m45s
Disconnecting: Corrupted MAC on input.


This is pretty consistant with any larger (over 1MB or so) download  
that the machine is doing.  I've searched and other than  
understanding this is  a network problem I don't know where to look.

For the sake of it I ended up upgrading my router firmware as I read  
somewhere about a Linksys issue - I am now current on the firmware  
(the machine is sitting on the DMZ address of the router).  I have  
swapped ethernet cables and generally looked at my physical network.

The dmesg for the machine is below.  Anyone with advice if you could  
please over-explain a bit it would be appreciated.  I am pretty new  
to FreeBSD and working my way through plenty of books and Googling.   
I'm not completely sure how to check if my network interface driver  
is the most current or how to change it.

Thank you!
