re(4) problems with GA-H77N-WIFI

Hello,

I need some advice how to debug this issue ...

Recently I got a new mainboard for a router, it's a
Gigabyte GA-H77N-WIFI with two onboard re(4) NICs.

The problem is that re0 works fine and re1 doesn't:
It doesn't receive any packets.  Tcpdump displays all
outgoing packets, but no incoming ones on re1.
Ifconfig shows the link correctly (100 or 1000 Mbit,
depending on where I plug the cable in).
I also swapped cables just to be sure, but it made no
difference.

I'm running a recent stable/9 (about 14 days old).
What's the best way to debug this problem?  At the
moment I'm not even sure if it's the hardware, or if
it's FreeBSD's fault (or my fault) ...

Best regards
   Oliver
