March 25, 20224 yr Hello all, The Intel ixgbe driver for Intel's 10GB network cards does not currently enable advertisement for 2.5GB and 5GB link speeds. The result is that an ethtool command must be executed to enable advertisement for 2.5GB and 5GB link speeds. The readme provided with the Intel driver states that it is possible to enable NBASE-T support before the interface is brought up. Below is an excerpt from the Intel driver readme explaining what can be done: Quote NOTE: On Linux systems with INTERFACES(5), this can be specified as a pre-up command in /etc/network/interfaces so that the interface is always brought up with NBASE-T support. For example: # iface <ethX> inet dhcp pre-up ethtool -s <ethX> advertise 0x1800000001028 || true Is this something that can be done on Unraid? If not, is there a recommended method for automating the necessary ethtool command during the boot process for Unraid? Thanks in advance! -Harley
