Hmm, well, i was using iftop all the time on the bridge, and one of the interfaces do have an ip address. Iftop was working fine on the bridge until i switched to the media type for the interface to 10baseT/UTP..

That'll be it. When iftop starts up, does it say "Cannot obtain MAC address on this platform"? (you should be able to see this message after you quit).
If so, then the problem is that it can't get the hardware address, and because it's a bridge, the interfaces don't have an IP address, so it can't determine which way the packets are actually moving.
Either we need to figure out how to get the hardware address on FreeBSD, or add an option to specify the hardware address.
