          @DefenderLLC And you also have the corbuc module loaded in kldstat?

              FYI, this is still an issue through today's 24.03 snapshot:

                Hmm, still not seeing that here. Let me see if I can reproduce it on anything....

                  @stephenw10 Perhaps I should try removing the Netgate Firmware Update package and then reinstall it... I'll give that a try.

                  Update: that did not work. same result.

                    Mmm, I wouldn't expect that to do anything the cordbuc device should always be present.

                    I assume the LEDs don't work? You see a bunch or GPIO/LED errors in the boot log?

                      @stephenw10 I don't see anything out of the ordinary. Something changed after one of these recent 24.03 snapshot builds in the last few weeks when I first reported it. That other person on this thread noticed the same thing. I believe he/she also has a 6100.

                        We suspect a change there may not have made it into your install somehow.

                                  Aha! They should be added by loader.conf.lua at boot but yours are not for some reason. Checking....

                                      Is it not reporting as the correct device somehow? Seems unlikely since that would break a lot more things but:
