I've been using FreeBSD 8.0 since the June code freeze snapshot on my home router which I just upgraded. I can't remember if I had 8.0 on the old machine (repurposed Gateway 5066E with Intel Pentium D 820 and 945G chipset), although I know it had 7.2 which ran fine. The new setup includes a new motherboard, memory, and PSU; Supermicro X7SLM-L along with the Pentium D 820 from the Gateway, 2GB DDR2, and 400W PSU. It's currently running 8.0 BETA 3 and the issue started either after the hardware upgrade or after moving to BETA 2, as I didn't notice any issues with the June snapshot (whatever hardware it was running on at the time).
Every now and then when transferring files to my file server the subnets become unroutable and rebooting is the only method I've found of fixing it. However, it doesn't seem to be motherboard related as a simple shutdown now followed by exit fixes it without going through a full POST.
I've also tried just restarting specific services when it happens, such as /etc/rc.d/netif restart and any other network-related services without success. MBUFs seem to be fine and doesn't appear to be any leaking issues as per the FreeBSD wiki. Moreover, the routes seem to be what they always are:
Anyone have any ideas of where to poke around to see what's causing the issue?
