      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.

            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.

                      @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.

                          Hi,
                          I can confirm, auto-negotiation seems to work correctly on version 23.01.r.20230208.1414.

                          @jimp @stephenw10 Thank you.
