mychips Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 I have an Asus maximus extreme XI board with 9900k as my unraid server . The motherboard has a 1G LAN port and a 5G LAN port, the 1G works fine but the 5G just appears dead and unresponsive but in the bios it is activated. Would appreciate any help as to why I cannot get the 5G port to become active. Ive just upgraded to 1G Fibre which the router has a 2.5G port which is connected to the server on the 1G Lan that is working. Thank you Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 You'd have to post your diagnostics so we can see what's happening Quote Link to comment

JorgeB Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 The other NIC is being detected and the driver is loaded, it's not detecting a link though, and it's in a bond with eth0, do you intend to use them together? Quote Link to comment
mychips Posted October 26, 2022 Author Share Posted October 26, 2022 No i dont intend to do that i just want to take advantage of the 2.5G router connection. So why do you think it doesnt connect i.e. teh LAN yellow and green lights dont light up and also cannot see it connected on the modem/router Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Try a different cable/switch. Quote Link to comment
