The problem is that the card works only at 10Mbit/s. I've read the man page for ed(4), but didn't find a solution. Here's the output from ifconfig: # ifconfig ed1 ed1: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet 192.168.1.3 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 ether 00:04:5a:99:be:d7 # ifconfig ed1 192.168.1.3 media 100baseTX ...(or media autoselect) ifconfig: SIOCGIFMEDIA: Invalid argument does this mean that the ed driver doesn't support 100baseTX on this card? So I've tried another thing: Booted MicroBSD from CD for a test: here's what shows at boot: ne3 at pcmcia1 function 0 "Linksys, EtherFast 10/100 PC Card (PCMPC100 V3), V2.0" port 0xa000/32: LAN iobase 0x240 (0xa000) -> 0x0 ne3: address 00:04:5a:99:be:d7 bmtphy0 at ne3 phy 1: BCM5221 100baseTX PHY, rev. 4 # ifconfig ne3 ne3: flags=8863 mtu 1500 address: 00:04:5a:99:be:d7 media: Ethernet 100baseTX full-duplex status: active inet 192.168.1.3 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 inet6 fe80::204:5aff:fe99:bed7%ne3 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x14 here it shows as 100baseTX full-duplex...but it works at 10Mbit/s again. maybe this card works only at 10Mbit/s ? thanx george To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
