        Sounds like something is linked at 1G.

        The ISP equipment might be trying to link at 2.5G and the NIC doesn't support it.

        Try running at the command line: ifconfig -vma to see how the NICs are linked now and what they are capable of.

        Run pciconf -lv to see the actual device and vendor IDs for the NICs.
