There doesn't seem to be any issue with auto detection. Also, I have seen it step down to 100 Mb on a bad cable or, of course, trying to talk to 100 Mb connection like a bad switch port or a switch that doesn't support Gb. (so, behaving like it should...) If you're going card to card, make sure they are both Gb capable. So, I'd check both end points and the cable as a first step. (All my cables are at least cat 5e to support Gb - although I have some well made 5 cables that do support Gb negotiation but I can't seem to push them beyond 700 Mb with these adapters *shrug*) P On 10/31/2017 11:24, Ernie Luzar wrote: > > em - Intel(R) PRO/1000 Gigabit Ethernet adapter driver > > The boot messages show the Gigabit Ethernet adapter is correctly > identified at boot time as shown below. > > em0: port 0xf080-0xf09f > mem 0xf7d00000-0xf7d1ffff,0xf7d3c000-0xf7d3cfff irq 20 at > device 25.0 on pci0 > em0: Using an MSI interrupt > em0: Ethernet address: d0:50:99:93:75:98 > em0: netmap queues/slots: TX 1/1024, RX 1/1024 > > > But after the system is up and running ifconfig em0 shows > > em0: flags=8843 > metric 0 mtu 1500 > options=4019b TSO4,VLAN_HWTSO> > ether d0:50:99:93:75:98 > hwaddr d0:50:99:93:75:98 > inet 10.0.10.2 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 10.255.255.255 > nd6 options=29 > media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX ) > status: active > > and we see that (100baseTX ) has been selected as default > and it should be (1000baseTX ). > > How do I force the Ethernet adapter into Gigabit mode? > > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to > "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
