fx5624 install - new problem

[Nick Upson]

Hi,

having got pfsense 1.2.3 to install on the box I've now got a new problem. I
can't get the 10/100M ports to work.

If I go into the shell and do "ifconfig" all interfaces are present but
these ports always show "status: no carrier" with or without a cable to
another PC plugged in

I realise that this may be a hardware issue but I thought it best to check
here in case there is something else I can do

Have you tried other cables and hardware connected to the other end? Instead
of cross, try straight cables or the other way round.

And set the ports on the other end manually to 10 or 100Mb might also be
something to try.



Maybe those ports don't support autosensing/autonegotiation, that can cause
issues sometimes.

that was it, a colegue pointed me in that direction a few mins ago, it threw
me that the giga ports do have it but the 10/100 didn't
