Hi,

i have a problem with the if_re driver for my gigabit network card
(RTL8196). When i set it to autoselect, it works fine,
although with apparently random performance problems. When i try to set
it to a fixed media type (both 100baseTX and 1000baseTX) the link goes
down, and stays down until i set it to autoselect again. It does seem to
work when setting it to 10baset/utp.

This happens with the driver in -CURRENT (__FBSDID("$FreeBSD:
src/sys/dev/re/if_re.c,v 1.72 2006/08/03 00:15:19 yongari Ex)

I have seen in the issue tracker and on the -current and -stable that
there were other problems with the re(4) driver, but did not see this
one. Any ideas?

Jelte
