I had this problem with a SOHOware card, and figured out the problem was
that I was explicitly choosing media rather than letting the card do its
own media negotiation with the switch/hub.  (I had to force it in 1.5.x
because auto-negotiation wasn't working right.)

If your ifconfig scripts select ifmedia, try not doing that.
