Problem with DLink QuadPort 10/100
-
Hi.
I have the following problem with my DLink QuadPort Card (D-Link DFE-570TX (21143, MII, quad port)):
ste0: <d-link 10="" dl10050="" 100basetx="">port 0x6000-0x607f irq 9 at device 4.0 on pc i4 miibus0: <mii bus="">on ste0 ukphy0: <generic ieee="" 802.3u="" media="" interface="">on miibus0 ukphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto ste0: Ethernet address: 00:0d:88:68:47:04 ste1: <d-link 10="" dl10050="" 100basetx="">port 0x6080-0x60ff irq 11 at device 5.0 on p ci4 miibus1: <mii bus="">on ste1 ukphy1: <generic ieee="" 802.3u="" media="" interface="">on miibus1 ukphy1: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto ste1: Ethernet address: 00:0d:88:68:47:05 ste2: <d-link 10="" dl10050="" 100basetx="">port 0x6400-0x647f irq 11 at device 6.0 on p ci4 ste2: MII without any phy! <------- device_attach: ste2 attach returned 6 ste3: <d-link 10="" dl10050="" 100basetx="">port 0x6480-0x64ff irq 10 at device 7.0 on p ci4 miibus2: <mii bus="">on ste3 ukphy2: <generic ieee="" 802.3u="" media="" interface="">on miibus2 ukphy2: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto ste3: Ethernet address: 00:0d:88:68:47:07</generic></mii></d-link></d-link></generic></mii></d-link></generic></mii></d-link>
One port out of 4 is not correctly recognized and I can not use it under pfSense.
–> ste2: MII without any phy!
I am currently running pfSense 1.2-RC4 on my server.
Could you say me if there is a patch for this problem ? I really need the 4 ports !Thanks a lot in advance for your answer.
Cordially,
Arnaud

It's highly likely that the port in question (or possibly the card) is faulty.
A quick check would be to grab the FreeBSD 6.3 LiveCD and see what it thinks of the card.

I use the same card without any problems. All four ports work fine.

Just curious - do you have all four ports connected to a hub or switch so they are active???
I have run into the situation where the interface had to be active before it was detected - especially if all the ports were on the same interrupt (I have not worked with that card so I don't know if it is the same)…

I only have three ports connected but all four are detected.
