April 11, 201016 yr Hey guys, Noticing something odd that started happening recently. My unRaid box comes up, and instead of the usual 3 consecutive beeps, I get one, and then a series of one high-pitched beep and one low-pitched beep which goes for a while before finally finishing with one high-pitched beep. Looking at the logs I discovered this was the ethernet link going up and down. Unfortunately, by the time it's done, it's only negotiated 10mbps, which doesn't make for very good streaming! My router is a gigabit router and is only a couple months old. I have 2 other machines connected to it, one megabit and one gigabit, and both are able to negotiate their appropriate 100/1000 links. I've tried running the command "ethtool -s eth0 speed 1000 duplex full autoneg off" but it didn't seem to do me much good. I was doing it over telnet, which may not be the best, so I'm going to try doing it from the terminal as soon as I drag my extra monitor/keyboard out I've attached the syslong, hopeful for some ideas on debugging this! Thanks syslog-2010-04-11.txt
