I am using an Early 2006 iMac, and installed FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE i386. This iMac has Marvell Yukon 88E8053, and when I try to use ping, I have a connection for about 2 seconds, then I get disconnected for 10-15 seconds. I tried to use Google to find a workaround but I found information targeting older versions of FreeBSD, as well as computers using ASUS motherboards, which I believe doesn't target the iMac or any Apple hardware. Is there any solution to this bug?
see https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2015-April/082226.html for a suggested solution.
