I am still working on things with the G555. Here is what worked: # ifconfig alc0 media 100baseTX # dhclient alc0 Here is what did not: It's slow to come up, so the /etc/rc.conf equivalent needs SYNCDHP: ifconfig_alc0="SYNCDHCP media 100baseTX" Here is my card: Beast# pciconf -l |grep alc0 alc0@pci0:9:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x394f17aa chip=0x10621969 rev=0xc0 hdr=0x00 Beast# dmesg | grep alc0 alc0: <Atheros AR8132 PCIe Fast Ethernet> port 0x2000-0x207f mem 0xd1000000-0xd103ffff irq 18 at device 0.0 on pci9 alc0: 15872 Tx FIFO, 15360 Rx FIFO alc0: Using 1 MSI message(s). miibus0: <MII bus> on alc0 alc0: Ethernet address: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx alc0: [FILTER] alc0: link state changed to UP The card works with the manual input. Thank you very much for that. I would like it to work in the rc.conf do you have another setting that might work? Sincerely, Brendhan
