Hi
from the boot messages, i can see that the network devices are started up properly. Strangely enough, the one that doesnt seem to be assigned an IRQ# is not having any problems, but one of the ones that is.
Here are the boot messages
de0: <Digital 21140A Fast Ethernet> port 0x4000-0x407f mem 0xf4a01000-0xf4a0107f at device 11.0 on pci2 de0: SMC 9332BDT 21140A [10-100Mb/s] pass 2.0 de0: Ethernet address: 00:00:c0:7f:a1:fd de0: if_start running deferred for Giant xl0: <3Com 3c905C-TX Fast Etherlink XL> port 0x4080-0x40ff mem 0xf4a01400-0xf4a0147f irq 10 at device 13.0 on pci2 miibus0: <MII bus> on xl0 xlphy0: <3c905C 10/100 internal PHY> on miibus0 xlphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto xl0: Ethernet address: 00:01:02:c1:ba:82 xl1: <3Com 3c905C-TX Fast Etherlink XL> port 0x4400-0x447f mem 0xf4a01800-0xf4a0187f irq 11 at device 15.0 on pci2 miibus1: <MII bus> on xl1 xlphy1: <3c905C 10/100 internal PHY> on miibus1 xlphy1: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto xl1: Ethernet address: 00:01:02:44:3c:22
Here goes my ifconfig
ifconfig

And, at last, a few ping attempts

Thank you very much,

Hello, everybody
Is there any limit as of how many interfaces can freebsd handle? Im trying to build a switch in a PC box, putting multiple NICs and some software... The issue is, even though all of the cards work correctly by themselves, once I put them together, it doesnt matter what slots i use, I can never make more than two of them work. For even though all the rest appear up as well, I cant ping neither them nor their peers (Im using crossover cables).
The software limit is 2^16-1. It sounds like you are having hardware issues. I'd tend to guess interrupt routing issues. I'd suggest posting details to freebsd-questions or possibly freebsd-stable.
