Unraid machine network stops working for both LAN and WAN


Recommended Posts

This has happened to me twice. I'll just be working on my server, and all the sudden, it goes completely dark from my network. The only way I'm able to interact with it is via command line on the machine itself.

 

The first time, I "fixed" it by restarting my machine.

The second time. I "fixed" it by unplugging and re-plugging the ethernet cord from the computer.

 

Here's a diagnostics file I took shortly after the second time it happened.

I assume you only pulled the cable once? Log shows the link going down multiple times:, e.g:


 

Apr 11 14:06:45 tower kernel: r8169 0000:02:00.0 eth0: Link is Down

Apr 11 14:06:46 tower kernel: r8169 0000:02:00.0 eth0: Link is Down

Apr 11 14:49:32 tower kernel: r8169 0000:02:00.0 eth0: Link is Down

Apr 11 14:49:56 tower kernel: r8169 0000:02:00.0 eth0: Link is Down

Apr 11 15:00:25 tower kernel: r8169 0000:02:00.0 eth0: Link is Down

 


Usually this would be a cable, switch or NIC issue.

I was doing a decent amount of network work on the day this incident happened. I restarted my router multiple times. My internet just got fixed today, so I had to restart my router to get the internet working. Then I restarted it at least twice to change some settings on the router. So many of those are legitimate. Not sure if that covers all of them or not.

Yes, to fix the issue, I pulled the cord once, around 10:24pm, but the diagnostics was taken way before then.

I ended up needing to restart the machine to get everything fully working again though. Some containers weren't able to recover, even after restarting them.

 

The issue started suddenly around 9:20pm.

What else could the problem be? The router seems like the only other relevant part of this system, but this behavior has only ever happened to the Unraid server.

I don't, but I've switched ethernet cables with another computer that I know to be working. I'll see if the error still happens. It's hard to know if it's fixed or not because it happens so randomly
