Sometimes re(4) used to fail to wakeup the controller which in turn resulted in 'no driver' for the controller. If this is the case you can see MII without any phy! message in dmesg output. You are right, I see that message. r188358(cvs if_re.c 1.95.2.40) should fix the issue so please try latest 7-stable or copy if_re.c, if_rlreg.h and if_rl.c from HEAD/ 7-stable to your 7.1-RELEASE box and rebuild kernel. If you still see the same issue please let me know. I copied the files and restarted my computer 5 times and the NIC was present in all of them. I will watch this issue and I will let you know if I notice more problems. Thanks so much for your help. Btw, stable@ is more appropriate list for this type of issues. Even if I'm not using -STABLE?
