Re: Kernel Panic in SANDPOINT 5.99.64-GENERIC on DSM-G600

Hi, my suspect is that I have a "brain damaged" gigabit chip.
The LAN led, when I plug the network cable,is not always in, but
blinks very fast, even without traffic.... Your unit LAN have the same
behaviour, or is always on as the user manual says???
