I recently got a small order for RB2011’s from Baltic Network, just four units, about a month ago roughly. So far three of the four that I have installed for my voice networks, (2 UiAS and 1 iL) have gone crazy. It appears to be only happening on ether’s 6-10 using the Atheros8227 switch chip. Doesn’t matter if I have the default bridge in use or I split the two chips between two bridges. Anything on that Atheros8227 chip ports have the same problem. Either they are not getting DHCP, don’t see the request or an offer. They get DHCP and can’t communicate/ping, etc. Ports that had devices connected to them and then removed continue to show link and traffic in the interface and physically on the router the port still flashes and shows links as if something is plugged into it.
The best one is that while these are either dumb FXS gateways or simple IP phones, the ports will show anywhere from 7 to 20Mbps being pushed over them consistently. As you can see with this screen shot.
Anyone seeing this?
