RE: iMAC with Broadcom 14e4-1686 BCM57766 : link status down
Hi all

I'm having a similar issue here : "link is down" message while the network is ok on MacOS and linux. I'm using a MacMini 7,1 with network card NetXtreme BCM57766 (14e4-1686).

More detail on the screenshot (sorry for the poor quality of the image):

Oddly, when I test ipxe.efi from under a EFI shell, the first attempt gives me the above message, but then if I exit ipxe.efi and start it again, this time I'm welcomed by a "link is up" message (see image below). But trying "dhcp" then does not set up the network, on the contrary I'm back to "link is down" afterwards.

Anything I can try to help solving this issue ?
