Dave,

Many thanks for your help! I'm working at 1 Gigabit! I'm very happy, it is 
my first driver modification using FreeBSD!

I had to modify also /usr/src/sys/dev/mii/brgphy.c

The conclusion is if using FreeBSD 7.0, BCM5722 must be included in the 
following source files:

/usr/src/sys/dev/bge/if_bge.c
/usr/src/sys/dev/bge/if_bgereg.h
/usr/src/sys/dev/mii/miidevs
/usr/src/sys/dev/mii/brgphy.c

Regards,
