Would you give more details on this? Showing me demsg(8) output
related with alc(4) and atphy(4) would be good help.
When I tried AR8132 sample board it had no such problems on my box.
AR8132 uses F1 PHY even if it support only 10/100Mbps link so this
might cause problems on your box, I guess. Does your link partner
support only 10/100Mbps?
