$ ifconfig axe0
axe0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
lladdr 00:80:c8:ff:ff:a1
priority: 0
media: Ethernet autoselect (none loopback)
status: no carrier
inet6 fe80::280:c8ff:feff:ffa1%axe0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5
inet 10.0.0.212 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255
I can see packets on the interface if I use tcpdump but the status shows
"No Carrier". However the lights on the adapter are on and I can do a
tcpdump and see packets arriving at the interface.
I tried this on different systems -- a netbook, a laptop, and two
desktops and in each case got the same result (4.5 -stable, 4.6 release,
and 4.6 -stable, all i386 and a 4.5 -stable amd64). I also tried
changing the media and mediaopt settings to 100BaseTX, 10BaseT, and
1000BaseT in addition to the default autoselect.
Will this device work on OpenBSD or if this was a dumb purchase on my
part can someone suggest a USB ethernet adapter that will work properly?
Thanks very much.
Here is the full dmesg and please let me know if any additional
information will be useful.
