ethernet stops working after ifconfig down...ifconfig up #7

At first I posted in the other sleep issue, but I am making a separate issue as it seems sleep may not be the root cause of the problem.

My card is a BCM5754 (14e4:167a) (rev 02)

Steps to reproduce the problem:

ethernet will not function until kext is unloaded and then reloaded. Going to sleep and then waking up also causes this problem.

Might be a similarly related issue for me, 14e4:1691 KPs the system on "ifconfig en0 down"

you could sleepwatcher to unload/load the kext when your computer wakes up from sleep.

Hi,

I've fixed that wakeup bug (I think). I made a version 2.3.6. Only tested on a D630 and a Precison M4300.

See https://github.com/jief666/BCM5722D/tree/GigaBug for sources and https://bitbucket.org/Jief666/bcm5722d/downloads for binary.

Cheers.
