It looks like it fixed itself

NOTICE: ce0: fault cleared external to device; service available
NOTICE: ce0: xcvr addr:0x01 - link up 1000 Mbps full duplex

Run ifconfig -a to look at the configured network cards. Post the output (change any IP you don't want seen with something that gives no clue for security reasons)

Then use the ndd command to check the status of the cards.
You can use the ndd command on most interfaces - basically, you set which interface you want to use and then check if it is up or down - other parameters can be checked also. See the man page.
ndd -set /dev/hme instance 0 #change hme and 0 to your type of interface & number

ndd -get /dev/hme link_status
0 is down, 1 is up

hi RTM,

thank you for your solution
