Acer Aspire One D250 has the same chip and problem (8.1-stable):
alc0: <Atheros AR8132 PCIe Fast Ethernet> port 0x2000-0x207f mem 0x55000000-0x5503ffff irq 18 at device 0.0 on pci3
alc0: 15872 Tx FIFO, 15360 Rx FIFO
alc0: Using 1 MSI message(s).
miibus0: <MII bus> on alc0
atphy0: <Atheros F1 10/100/1000 PHY> PHY 0 on miibus0
atphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto
alc0: Ethernet address: 00:23:5a:80:d8:7a
alc0: [FILTER]
Forcing it to a fixed speed works:
ifconfig_alc0="SYNCDHCP media 100baseTX"
