No Nework - New Motherboard

[prytzen]

I have upgraded my server with a new motherboard and CPU. I have everything working, but there is no network connection. I usually have it set as Static, but it didnt work so i booted into GUI mode and switched it to DHCP - still not working. I thought maybe the onboard WiFi was getting in the way so i disabled it in BIOS, but still the same issue. I have not changed the Network cable or the switch port, these are known good and working. 

 

I can see in the devices list, an ethernet controller listed, so i am assuming that the device is being picked up (but maybe i just dont know what i am looking at). The only other thing that i can think of is that the onboard ethernet is 2.5Gbps being plugged into a 100/1000 mbps switchport. I can see on the switch side that autonegotiate has picked up 1000mbps - but still no IP address or network connection. 

 

Any Ideas you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Chances are that if it is a new motherboard you will need to be on the unRaid 6.9.x releases to have driver support for your motherboard’s NIC.

There is no kernel module loaded against this device.

 

06:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Intel Corporation Device [8086:15f3] (rev 03)
    Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Device [1043:87d2]

 

Support was added in kernel 4.20 & 5.x 6.8.3 is running 4.19

 

As itimpi said you need to upgrade to 6.9 to get support drivers.

As always - you are both correct. 

 

Thank you for the advice. I was able to manually update the Flash drive with 6.9 and everything seems to work. 

 

Thanks!
