 Running R1/alpha 2 (Revision 36769) GCC 2 Hybrid
 Kernel May 8 2010 20:58:31, Architecture: Pentium 4 2.79 ghz with 2678 MB
 RAM, HP dx2000MT with non stock Network card added: D-Link DGE-530T
 10/100/1000 Gigabit Adapter. (Native Card is shown as a "sysconnekt" in
 Haiku, which is a 10/100 - not being utilized.)

 When I connect the network cable into the D-Link network card - a network
 connection only exists if I choose DHCP. If I change the connection to a
 static IP, I loose my connection. If I revert back to DHCP the useage bar
 on the left (memory or CPU usage goes almost to 100%, I can no longer use
 Haiku and am forced to pull the plug on the computer.

 (Note - I also own a second similar looking machine ->HP D220 with 2.4 ghz
 and 759 MB Ram ->identical build information as above. However the native
 card in this machine is a Broadcom 440x, which I used initially without
 issue.

 It will sound odd, but I also have a second card in the HPD220, however it
 is a Realtek 102TXA 10/100 card (equivalent bandwirth as native Broadcom
 Card). Upon switching the cable connection to the Realtek card from the
 Broadcom card, I lost networking from the Realtek card -> I could not ping
 the router.

 Switching from DHCP to a static configuration didn't resolve the issue,
 and switching back to DHCP from a static setting is not a problem.

 A network connection from this Realtek card was previously functional.
 When I plugged the cable back into the Broadcom card -> networking
 functioned properly from it.)

 Unfortunately I haven't the programming skill to submit a patch. Its also
 difficult for me to tell what the real problem is, however, my guess is
 that there is an issue with Haiku being able to adjust its networking
 settings to changing circumstances on the fly - weather it be [from DHCP
 to static] or [device number] or [drivers utilized]. However, it also
 seems that either [gigabit networking] or [the driver for Dlink cards] are
 factors in this issue as well.
