Speed and Duplex negotiation on WAN interface does not work
-
It just fails to link?
What are you linking it to?

Hi Steve,
yes, with "autoselect" mode it fails to link. No connection, LEDs are still off.
The problem is only with WAN port. (Ports LAN1-4 work alright.)
On gigabit links connection works fine, so as workaround I have put gigabit switch between netgate and ISP's router.Devices:
Does not work with: MikroTik RB941-2nD, MikroTik RB-740r2, Linksys SR224 (100Mbit devices)
Works with: Cisco SG100-16, TP-Link T1500G-8T, TP-Link TL-SG2218 (1Gbit devices) -
Hi,
upgraded to version 23.01.r.20230202.0019.
The problem still persists. -
Ok I've replicated that. Digging....
-
We have an internal bug report open for this. Developers are looking into it.
-
@rvtk Thanks for the heads up on this.
Same problem on a Netgate 2100 running 23.01-RC with PPPoE WAN to a VDSL modem at 100 Mbps. Connects OK if I put a gigabit switch between them.
-
That's a 100M device set to auto negotiate rather than something at 100M fixed?

@stephenw10 I've never adjusted the settings and cannot see any options for this, it's a ZyXEL VMG1312-B10A. I'm using an MTU of 1508 on this link if that makes a difference.
-
Ok, thanks. I'll update our bug report.
-
@stephenw10 Has there been some work done on this? I've just updated the Netgate 2100 to the latest 23.01-RC (Wed Feb 08 14:19:16 UTC 2023) and direct links to the 100Mbit modem seems to be working now.
-
Yes, we put in a fix yesterday evening, today's build is the first with the fix included.

Hi,
I can confirm, auto-negotiation seems to work correctly on version 23.01.r.20230208.1414.@jimp @stephenw10 Thank you.
