First I checked for available media types:

Code:
# ifconfig alc0 media
alc0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
   lladdr 70:5a:b6:63:f8:ce
   priority: 0
   media: Ethernet autoselect (none)
   status: no carrier
   supported media:
       media none
       media 10baseT
       media 10baseT mediaopt full-duplex
       media 100baseTX
       media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex
       media 1000baseT mediaopt full-duplex
       media autoselect
Well, one thing I noticed here is that the interface isn't marked UP.

What happens if you do a
Code:
ifconfig alc0 up
