October 20, 2025Oct 20 I recently upgraded my mobo, CPU, and RAM in my Unraid build. After the swap, I'm not able to connect to the server over the network. If I boot in GUI mode, and go to Settings > Network Settings, I can see that there is no network device detected (I do see that "device eth0 does not exist" flashes by when the server is starting). The Interface Link says "Unknown (not present)". Diagnostics file is attached. I have tried renaming the network.cfg file on the flash drive to force it to regenerate. No luck. helicopter-diagnostics-20251020-0627.zip
