Thoughts? As I am not sure what needs to change for this to be fixed

/dev/net/broadcom570x/0
Hardware type: Ethernet, Address: 00:15:60:c0:17:a5
Media type: 100 MBit, 100BASE-TX
inet addr: 10.21.16.72, Bcast: 10.21.17.255, Mask: 255.255.254.0
MTU: 1500, Metric: 0, up broadcast link auto-configured
Receive: 1878 packets, 0 errors, 177197 bytes, 0 mcasts, 0 dropped
Transmit: 155 packets, 0 errors, 17419 bytes, 0 mcasts, 0 dropped
