Struggling like crazy with sfp+ module on Netgate 6100
-
Hi,
No modules I've tried on the 6100 are working.
Lately I even bought the module from netgate SFP+ 10GBASE-T 80M COPPER RJ-45 TRANSCEIVER and it still doesn't work...Below is the module connected with my ISP 1GB terminal connection ( the interface is setup as dhcp client.

I don't really know what else I can do at this point
Any suggestions are welcome...
Thanks !

And I found my answer in https://forum.netgate.com/topic/188956/netgate-6100-max-with-tnsr-and-10gbaset-sfp-modules
As I'm not familiar with sfp modules, I didn't noticed they are NOT capable of auto negotiation... so a 10G module need to be connected to another 10G port ( therefore my ISP 1G port can't establish a connection with the 10G module).
Thanks @cwhitten-dec !
