I have a Realtek 8139 interface in one of my machines and it will not connect to the network. /etc/rc.conf contains ifconfig_rl0="DHCP" and "rl0" was obtained from a dmesg. A network interface restart yields the following:
Code:
# /etc/rc.d/netif restart
Stopping network: lo0 rl0 fwe0 plip0.
rl0: no link .............. giving up
