Hello, I'm having similar problems using an onboard RTL 8168B NIC. I noticed there were some recent changes to the re0 driver, so I tried -STABLE (r258961). The device is detected but can't send or receive packets. Interestingly it doesn't work in Debian wheezy, but does work fine in Windows 7 with latest drivers. I'm happy to assist in any way. Here's some relevant debugging information pciconf -l -v re0@pci0:1:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x81161019 chip=0x816810ec rev=0x0c hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.' device = 'RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller' class = network subclass = ethernet re0: <RealTek 8168/8111 B/C/CP/D/DP/E/F/G PCIe Gigabit Ethernet> port 0xe000-0xe0ff mem 0xfea00000-0xfea00fff,0xd0800000-0xd0803fff irq 32 at device 0.0 on pci1 re0: Using 1 MSI-X message re0: ASPM disabled re0: Chip rev. 0x4c000000 re0: MAC rev. 0x00000000 miibus0: <MII bus> on re0 re0: Ethernet address: 74:27:ea:d3:de:5a Thanks!, David > > Hello, > > we are trying to install FreeBSD on a computer that uses the NIC mentioned > above.
