I have a Netgear GA511 cardbus gigabit ethernet adapter based on a supported chipset (Realtek RTL8169) that is not getting detected by FreeBSD. I originally had this problem with pfSense which is based on FreeBSD. Per recommendations I received, I tried the official FreeBSD 8 but still cannot get this card working. Here is the message that appears in dmesg whenever I insert the card:
The laptop I am trying to use this card with is an Acer Travelmate 2423WXCi. I am stumped and being a noob to FreeBSD I am reaching out here for help.
Code:
cbb0: Warning: Bus reset timeout
