November 21, 201114 yr I'm getting "Link beat lost" errors in the syslog (when it happens files being played off the machine studder). Seems to happen intermittently - for example syslog shows: Nov 3: 12 times Nov 6 (so 4th and 5th no issues): 1 time Nov 7 once Nov 9: 3 times Nov 11: 4 times Nov 12: 5 times Nov 15, 16, 17 about 6-8 times each day Nov 18: 25 times Nov 19: 70 + times Nov 20: 180+ times I've not changed anything during the above issues: I've now tried changing the cable and got a few more; changed ports, still got a couple. Today (the 20th) I was only playing video files off the machine I have Not yet tried a new NIC (as I don't really have space in the machine, but will make some if needed). And I have not Tried a new Switch yet. I'm using Gigabit - on board card to gigabit switch (D-Link 5 port). Motherboard should show in my info section. What is the most likely cause of this issue? NIC or Switch? Or something else? (I've switched cables - currently on a Cat6, which still has it throwing errors occasionally). That said, it does seem to have "calmed" down, but only time will tell. Thanks!
November 21, 201114 yr Author http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=9880.0 I didn't include my syslog because I summarized it above. There are No other Network or errors thrown around the ethernet errors that I described. As it turns out it was the switch. Thanks,
