This sounded relevant, and yep I was changing around cables while the Win7 box booted up which may have caused it to go into IPoIB mode instead of proper Ethernet.
So I turned off the Win7 box (disconnected from the wall, just to make sure), then made sure the cable to the FreeNAS box was connected ok and powered things back on.
This time, the card came up in proper Ethernet mode. Strangely, it's not seeing the FreeNAS box on the other side but that sounds like a problem for investigating later (getting very sleepy here atm).
@yurelle... it's probably worth giving that a shot too. eg power off the box completely (eg from the wall), + make the sure cable is in place before turning things back on. That way it should autodetect ethernet mode when it starts up.
