Problem with Broadcom 440x network controller

[Jelmer]

I have the following problem:

 

After I installed OS X, using deadmoo's image, network just worked out of the box, no problems at all.

 

Only, after some restarts, it just stopped working, and sometimes it will work suddenly again.

 

If it isnt working, i get the following message in System Prefs->Network:

Built-in Ethernet: Cable not plugged it.

 

Ofcourse i checked the cable/router etc. Everything is fine....

In Windows, wich is on the same computer, using dual boot network is working all the time.

 

I already tried swtiching between Static and DHCP but no succes.

 

 

Some technical details:

 

Network card: Broadcom 440x 10/100 Integrated network controller

Router: Some weird E-Tech device

CPU: Intel Pentium M (SSE2 no SSE3)

 

 

I am using maxxus's v0.4 patch.

 

Any help is appreciated,

i got the same ethernet and very same problem

but i've overcome this problem by turning network boot on in bios

when system will boot it will look at the network for boot device (just cancel that) and you'll b good to go forward

 

oh yeah dun forget to attach the cable when u boot the system

 

let me know if it works
