December 29, 200718 yr Hi, recently i changed my motherboard to Intel® DG965OTMKR (Northbridge : Intel® G965), all work fine, but the LAN is too slow. The speed is 100 Mbps max, and in the syslog the ethernet Gigabit mode is in error, i have the following message : e1000_watchdog_task: NIC Link is Up 10 Mbps Full Duplex. Any ideas for this problem ? Cheers
December 30, 200718 yr Did you ever get this working? I am looking at buying an intel motherboard with this lan controller in it. -Todd
December 30, 200718 yr Author Hi Todd, it has never worked fine. I think it's a kernel compatibiliity problem. For instance, i will buy a single ethernet card and i will disable the inboard LAN. Maybe in the future it will work.
December 30, 200718 yr We'll incorporate the latest Intel driver in the next unRAID release - might fix this problem. Next release should be in a few days.
January 5, 200818 yr Author Shit... Today i bought the D-Link ethernet card DGE-528T, normally i should have the gigabit speed but it's the same problem : eth0: e1000_watchdog_task: 10/100 speed: disabling TSO. Why is it not working ? Because the chipset motherboard ? Please help limetech
January 7, 200818 yr I did a quick google search for "eth0: e1000_watchdog_task: 10/100 speed: disabling TSO." and found this link. https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/Atlas/NetworkTroubleshooting It seems to indicate that same type of error in their case was caused by a defective network cable. Reading further, the same problem could be caused by a bad network card (unlikely in your case, since you just tried a different one) or a bad port on the switch/router. Make sure you disable (if possible) the onboard network interface in the motherboard BIOS. Then, if still broken... try a different network cable between the unRaid server and your switch. Try a different port on your switch. Joe L.
January 7, 200818 yr Author Hi Joe, very thanks to answer i was desesperate. Thanks also for the link, well the onboard network interface is disable in the motherboard BIOS. i will try different cable between my unRaid server and my PC, there is no switch. my log with ethtool : Settings for eth0: Supported ports: [ TP ] Supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 1000baseT/Full Supports auto-negotiation: Yes Advertised link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 1000baseT/Full Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes Speed: 100Mb/s Duplex: Full Port: Twisted Pair PHYAD: 0 Transceiver: internal Auto-negotiation: on Supports Wake-on: pumbg Wake-on: g Current message level: 0x00000033 (51) Link detected: yes
January 7, 200818 yr Author Cable... it was the problem, now it's work fine, thanks very very much No i'm going to test with LAN motherboard
January 7, 200818 yr Thats good news. Now I can use the gigabit card I purchased on my main computer and not the server.
