I have two different lan cards both 8139s

after inserting the relevant device id's in to the Apple kext file, the cards are seen by system preferences/ networking

but report as cable unplugged.

Using ifconfig I noticed this

 

 

en0: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

ether 00:00:59:fe:00:00

media: autoselect (<unknown type>) status: inactive

supported media: autoselect

 

I'm guessing the bit in bold is the problem, as below is the output from my onboard nforce 4 lan

 

 

 

en1: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

inet6 fe80::250:8dff:fed7:259%en1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5

inet 192.168.1.11 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255

ether 00:50:8d:d7:02:59

media: autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>) status: active

supported media: autoselect 10baseT/UTP <half-duplex> 10baseT/UTP <full-duplex> 100baseTX <full-duplex> 100baseTX <half-duplex> 1000baseT

 

 

Does anyone have any idea how to fix this, tried a few different kextfiles "drivers" but all give the same output.

I was wondering if it is possible to specify a media type in the plist file?
