Network card ASUS XG-C100C

[zfrenchy]

I want 100% confirmation this 10GB PCIe network card will work with UNRAID 6.10.3 before I ordered it (bought other brand card, didn't work)

 

The ASUS driver page said Linux kernel 3.10-5.11, Unraid 6.10.3 is kernel 5.15.46.

I have 2 of them and i think they do not support wake on lan but i might be wrong. I have to double check.

edit:

I checked asus website and they say it DOES NOT support wol.

I recently purchased  ASUS XG-C100C from amazon and installed it on my Unraid running version 6.10.3 and noticed that card does not get detected.

There are no lights or anything. Under network settings there is only eth0 and I don' t see eth01.

 

Just to make sure nic actually works, I installed it on my windows 10 machine and confirmed its detected and working (after installing drivers). 

 

So card works with windows but do i need to somehow install drivers on unraid for this card?

It should be plug and play, please post the diagnostics.

[SamF]

Thanks JorgeB for the quick reply. I've attached the diagnostic logs. Thanks

Only the onboard NIC is being detected on a hardware level, try a different PCIe slot if available.

[SamF]

Thanks JorgeB. Unfortunately I only have one slot to play with 

 

But based on a few other threads, I ended up ordering this from ebay https://www.ebay.ca/itm/234688389592  and it just arrived and it works.

This was plug an play as all I did was turn unraid off. Install new NIC and move ethernet cable from mother board port to new NIC. Start unraid and i can log in. 

 

As for the Asus, I'll install it on my windows machine again and test out and see how reliable it is. 

 

Appreciate the time and help. Thanks again.

I just updated my unRaid server to this card last week and it's detected and working for me on the latest official 6.10.3 series. I have it set as eth0 and marked all the other nice as down. No issues that I can see yet.

 

Sounds like you got a bad card.

Could just be some compatibility issue between the NIC and the board.

[Stalkkaaja]

I've got this Asus NIC and it's always been plug and play with my Unraid so I don't know why it doesn't work for u, especially if the other one worked out-of-the-box. Weird.

Agreed, the Asus is just an Aquantia NIC painted red.  Same NIC is fitted to a lot of NAS/server boards.  There's no reason it won't work on unRAID.  My QNAP unRAID box has the Aq NIC and works fine, and I've also had the Asus card working in my old unRAID box (a i5-6500T machine).
