Disabling autosense on NIC
-
I am getting no carrier on the WAN, right after plugging in WAN it loses connection. I have tried to change config.xml like;
<media>100 base TX
<mediaopt>full duplex</mediaopt>Looking at ifconfig its says autoselect none</media>

Try a crossover cable.

I doubt that these options are correct. Did you run ifconfig -m to see the valid options for your NIC?
For example, a sis interface on a wrap shows these options:sis0: flags=8943 <up,broadcast,running,promisc,simplex,multicast>mtu 1500 options=8 <vlan_mtu>capabilities=48 <vlan_mtu,polling>inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 inet6 fe80::20d:b9ff:fe01:2c8%sis0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 ether 00:0d:b9:01:02:c8 media: Ethernet autoselect (none) status: no carrier supported media: media autoselect media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex media 100baseTX media 10baseT/UTP mediaopt full-duplex media 10baseT/UTP</vlan_mtu,polling></vlan_mtu></up,broadcast,running,promisc,simplex,multicast>
You have to enter the options in exactly the same way they are output here, without spaces.
But first do what Scott recommended, use a crossovercable and see if that makes a difference. Hardcoding settings usually causes just problems if not both sides are hardcoded.
