This is not really helpful, but I don't think this is a PCMCIA issue. I think it is just a DHCP issue. I don't know how to diagnose why the DHCP request is failing... but the ethernet interface is operating correctly, as far as I can tell. The "did not autonegotiate" message is not a problem. It just means that your cable modem doesn't support the link protocol for selecting a 100baseT or full duplex connection, so the card is just running at 10baseT. That is fine, as you are sending and receiving packets successfully. Perhaps your cable connection does not support ordinary DHCP requests. If you try to run dhcpcd a second time, by hand, does it fail again? -- Dave |
