As Guido Falsi stated later in this thread, the device gets recognized but is = inoperable after initialized and setup by the OS until the administrator takes some st= range actions. In Guido's case a setting/resetting of NIC features helps, in my case I hav= e to bring down the device first via "ifconfig re0 down" and then bring it up. After t= hat, the NIC works as expected. This seems clearly to be a bug in the driver code and it= might indeed have to do something with a new revision used, but the NIC is since at leas= t a year on the market and floating around (my laptop was manufactured in April of this= year). Well, I hope this report doesn't get lost, so I filed a PR.
