Could it just be slow picking up status changes? We had a couple em(4) or igb(4) (forget now) NICs that were like that. Took a good minute after boot before the NIC was finished initialising and detected the link. If that's the case, and you don't mind the wait (and want to make sure networking is working once the boot is complete), you can use the netwait_* options in /etc/rc.conf. That will pause the boot process until either the network link status changes to up, and/or you can ping the default gateway or any other IP on the network. Worked for us. Might work for you. -- Freddie Cash fjwc...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
