How can I update (using cvsup)it to STABLE release, if there is no such release. Is it enough to build new kernel? @worldi: I’ve got this board and the same troubles with freesd 7.

If you want to use the onboard NIC (RealTek RTL8168/8111) you'll have to use 7.0-STABLE (2008-08), which also solves the aforementioned USB issue. Lessons learned: Don't throw away your trusty hardware from the last millenium (here: an old 3Com 3C900 NIC and an even older Escom AT-Keyboard with PS2 adapter)... it might come handy one day! ;) FYI: I had to disable USB in the BIOS in order to boot FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE on the Asus M3A78.
