I can see the device and it registers as ue0. unfortunetly, it doesn't completely work. When I plug it in, the console displays: ugen4.2: at usbus4 cdce0: on usbus4 cdce0: faking MAC address ue0: on cdce0 ue0: Ethernet address: 2a:d5:07:9d:01:00 The output from 'ifconfig ue0': ue0: flags=3D8802 metric 0 MTU 1500 ether 2a:d5:07:9d:01:00 nd6 options=3D29 Notably lacking a media or status entry. Is there any where I can go from here or should I wrote off this adapter and find a replacement?
