Hi guys,
About 2 years ago I installed a 2.5gbe NIC while probably on Unraid version 6.10.3 and everything was working fine. I believe I set it as eth0 instead of the onboard 1Gbe. I was getting 1.6 Gbps.
Recently I noticed that I'm always getting less than 1Gb.
On the dashboard it is showing this:
bond0 fault-tolerance (active-backup), mtu 1500
eth0 interface down
eth1 1000 Mbps, full duplex, mtu 1500
lo loopback
All this time the cable was plugged in the 2.5 gbe port. When plugged in 1 Gbe port it works too.
I wanted to change network rules to prioritize 2.5 Gbe, but this section is missint in Network Settings tab.
I know that the suggested solution is to delete network.cfg and network-rules.cfg and reboot the server.
I know that unraid should create the network-rules.cfg if there 2 or more ethernet cards in the system.
For some reason I have only these 2 files (but not network-rules.cfg):
network.cfg:
# Generated settings:
IFNAME[0]="br0"
BONDNAME[0]="bond0"
BONDING_MIIMON[0]="100"
BRNAME[0]="br0"
BRSTP[0]="no"
BRFD[0]="0"
BONDING_MODE[0]="1"
BONDNICS[0]="eth0 eth1"
BRNICS[0]="bond0"
PROTOCOL[0]="ipv4"
USE_DHCP[0]="no"
IPADDR[0]="192.168.2.10"
NETMASK[0]="255.XXX.XXX.0"
GATEWAY[0]="192.168.2.1"
DNS_SERVER1="192.168.2.1"
DNS_SERVER2="8.XXX.XXX.8"
USE_DHCP6[0]="yes"
DHCP6_KEEPRESOLV="no"
SYSNICS="1"
network-extra.cfg:
include_interfaces="tailscale1"
exclude_interfaces=""
Nevertheles, I deleted network.cfg and rebooted a few times and it didn't help. network-rules.cfg not being created.
Yesterday I updated the Unraid to 6.12.6, but it didn't solve the issue.
Later I updated both drivers to suggested drivers from Apps, rebooted a few times too, but nothing changed.
I'll appreciate a lot any help with this.
Attached the diagnostics file.
Thanks a lot and happy NY
