Hi, everyone.
I just upgraded my motherboard, so now my NIC (there are two of them) is Realtek Gbe (GA-Z77N-wifi mb). It didn't work with the FreeBSD kernel re driver (the interface shows up, reports the link "active" and then can't obtain a DHCP configuration), so I installed the Realtek driver from Realtek site and the NIC is fully functional now.
Except that the system behaves weird now! After all the boot message about networking interfaces found (lo0, re0, re1), there is a considerable stop and then this shows up:
This waiting for default route results in nothing (of course), but most annoyingly, DHCP on re1 doesn't start at all. I have to start DHCP manually using
Here is my /etc/rc.conf:
The first line about ipv6 was added later and didn't help at all. There was also a WiFi Intel Centrino wireless-n 2230 card installed, but I removed it as it didn't work anyway.
Still, the message above appears out of the blue and DHCP on re1 doesn't work on startup, as configured. What could it be?
PS: the Realtek driver was installed following the README from the package: kernel reconfigured --> re removed --> recompiled without re --> compile Realtek's if_re.ko module --> install the module& and add if_re.ko to /boot/loader.conf.
