The intel nic is a fxp interface.Device ID 1050("Intel 82801BA (D865)
Pro/100 VE Ethernet")You probably need to use the latest driver from
current.To make sure you have the driver check if you have this line
{ 0x1050, -1, "Intel 82801BA (D865) Pro/100 VE Ethernet" }, in
if_fxp.c
Ditto with broadcom NIC
