      Hi,
      I'm trying to setup pfSense firewall and cannot get a link on that card: http://www.alliedtelesis.com/p-1855.html

      I have tried both autonegotiation as well as forced speed/duplex, but no luck.
      I used pfSense 2.0.2 and the latest beta version.
      The status says no carrier.
      I am 100% sure that card and the fiber link are working because when I boot Linux on that box I can configure that card and all is working fine.

      Any ideas?

      Thanks

      ifconfig bge0
