Lost net connection

[Pierre Dupond]

This bug has been corrected but not yet included in the main release
(at least not in the 12.1).

I have to patch the sources, recompile world and kernel and reinstall them
to make it work.

It would be nice if these patches were integrated in the main
sources of FreeBSD.

Details are available here: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=239240
