I'm sorry for not pointing this out earlier, but it's a 3COM 905-B card
with the driver from http://www.pt.com/products/prod_PCI560_supp_faq.html

PCI560 Ethernet adapter

Here is the output from ifconfig

I doubt that it's related to the card, but I can test the nca.if and put
in hme0 and see if works with it.

For the card, yes.
