Comment (by mmlr):
Can you attach a syslog? The media changes are printed there, so it should
show there what's going on. Maybe media status reporting is broken or not
implemented for that driver? You can verify that by checking the ifconfig
output. The line where the MTU is printed also shows "link" if a link is
detected. Note that there sadly are two different flags that are used to
determine link state, IFM_ACTIVE and IFF_LINK. The ethernet network stack
module does set IFF_LINK based on IFM_ACTIVE, but I haven't verified
whether or not it is possible that the flags diverge at some point.
