If so, is the LED from the connection of your computer on, just after reboot? Does it turn on as soon as you send a packet? If this is the case, check that the LINK(0|1|2) option for your NIX is set correctly. It happened to me. This selects the connector of the network card. As soon as I send anything, the driver seems to select the proper connector by itself. But, setting LINK2 in the NIC options, in my case, selected the right connector at startup. Well, it's a long shot. -- Bart. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
