Just a quick question: do you use a hub? 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.
