I submitted a PR for the same issue but didn't follow up with information requests in the ticket yet. https://gnats.netbsd.org/cgi-bin/query-pr-single.pl?number=53301 "msk0 device reports no link, when there is link on same laptop with Windows and Linux." There is also a PR submitted before mine that is likely also applicable. https://gnats.netbsd.org/cgi-bin/query-pr-single.pl?number=43507 "no msk(4) on HP Probook 4510s" I don't have NetBSD installed on that laptop any longer, so never got it working. Hoping to give it a go this weekend. -Chris
