After applying ciphy.patch and using driver version 20060428, device is unable even to detect carrier (or current media settings): nfe0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 options=8<VLAN_MTU> inet 10.10.10.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.10.10.255 inet6 fe80::20f:eaff:fe7d:f320%nfe0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3 ether 00:0f:ea:7d:f3:20 media: Ethernet autoselect (none) status: no carrier Manually selecting media type (with `ifconfig nfe0 media <whatever>`) doesn't help either.
