May 23, 201016 yr My network is setup as 100Mbit router -> Gigabit switch -> Desktop(1000); Laptop(100); unRaid(1000). Unraid usually connects at 1000Mbit so I know my network's fine but since I added two additional hard drives to my array it has been connecting at 10Mbit (I also just upgraded to 4.5.4) Results of ethtool eth0 shows 10Mbit connection: root@Tower:~# ethtool eth0 Settings for eth0: Supported ports: [ TP MII ] Supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 1000baseT/Half 1000baseT/Full Supports auto-negotiation: Yes Advertised link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 1000baseT/Half 1000baseT/Full Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes Speed: 10Mb/s Duplex: Full Port: MII PHYAD: 0 Transceiver: internal Auto-negotiation: on Supports Wake-on: pumbg Wake-on: g Current message level: 0x00000033 (51) Link detected: yes Not sure if it helps but, syslog is attached. I've tried restarting/unplugging without success, what's the best way to troubleshoot this? syslog_Dease.txt
May 23, 201016 yr Author I've since done the following with no effect: changed ports on the switch restarted the switch changed ethernet cord (all cabling is cat6) downgraded to 4.5.3 and a bunch of restarts I am puzzled.
May 23, 201016 yr Long shot, since you'd think you'd know if it had changed, but my BIOS has the option to force the network card to a certain speed... Sounding like a bad NIC.
May 23, 201016 yr Author Checked the BIOS, no options regarding LAN other than on/off. The only other thing interesting was that the BIOS only lists the first 4 of 6 drives installed (unraid uses all 6) All I can think of now is replacing the motherboard, or perhaps just buying a pci NIC...
May 26, 201016 yr Author I bought a pic NIC - Belkin F5D5005 Good news is that my switch shows a gigabit connection (green instead of amber) but I can't see it on the network - http://tower does not work nor does my mapped network drive connect. I've confirmed that the server indeed does boot up fine, and if I switch the connection to the mobo nic I can access the server @10Mbit. Any ideas?

If that does not do it, then post a syslog.
