I have ADSL from a local ISP. The connection get disconnected every now
and then.
The ethernet card must be on 10Mbit and half-duplex. The modem they
provided requires this. The ethernet card is question is ed0. (I also
provided xl0 as a second option) Even do my switch tels me ed0 is at
10Mb/s and half duplex and xl0 is at 100Mbit and full duplex, i still
like to know how to change this.
ifconfig gives:
ed0: flags=8843 mtu 1500
inet 10.0.0.150 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255
inet6 fe80::24f:49ff:fe07:d152%ed0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
ether 00:4f:49:07:d1:52
xl0: flags=8843 mtu 1500
inet 192.168.31.2 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.31.255
inet6 fe80::201:2ff:fedc:30b3%xl0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2
ether 00:01:02:dc:30:b3
media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX )
status: active
rc.conf gives:
ifconfig_ed0="inet 10.0.0.150 netmask 255.255.255.0"
ifconfig_xl0="inet 192.168.31.2 netmask 255.255.255.0"
dmesg:
ed0: port 0x6000-0x601f irq 10
at device 6.0 on pci0
ed0: address 00:4f:49:07:d1:52, type NE2000 (16 bit)
xl0: <3Com 3c905C-TX Fast Etherlink XL> port 0x6100-0x617f mem
0xf0800000-0xf080007f irq 9 at device 7.0 on pci0
xl0: Ethernet address: 00:01:02:dc:30:b3
I have tried to add 'mediaopt half-duplex' and 'media 10baseT/UDP' to
the rc.conf strings but non seems to work on both network card..
Any help would be appreciated very much.
Tanks,
Alex
