PostPosted: Sat Feb 24, 2018 7:23 am    Post subject: Ethernet don't work Reply with quote

Hello, normally, i use only my wifi, because i never have success to make it work my ethernet device. Now, i've decided to to try to make it work.
But don't know totally what i must activate on my kernel. I have already tried many times without success.
Can you help me please ?

Does this post (especially the echo statement) solve your problem?

Hi Fulgurance,
I assume the lspci output you posted is from your actual machine, and not the MinimalCD. It looks like you already have the driver either compiled in or loaded as a module. Could you elaborate on what exactly it is that's not working, what you've tried so far and also post the output of ifconfig -a to see whether the interface is being recognized and find /sys | grep devices.*3d:00.0 to see what the name of the driver is (to check if there have been any issues bringing up the interface in dmesg).

EDIT:
Nevermind, see post above and try that first (I guess going through the steps would've arrived at the same point eventually but eh). :D

Fulgurance,

You need the alx driver. It was added to the kernel around 4.4 or so.
Code:
  │ Symbol: ALX [=n]                                                                        │ 
  │ Type  : tristate                                                                        │ 
  │ Prompt: Qualcomm Atheros AR816x/AR817x support                                          │ 
  │   Location:                                                                             │ 
  │     -> Device Drivers                                                                   │ 
  │       -> Network device support (NETDEVICES [=y])                                       │ 
  │         -> Ethernet driver support (ETHERNET [=y])                                      │ 
  │ (1)       -> Atheros devices (NET_VENDOR_ATHEROS [=y])                                  │ 
  │   Defined at drivers/net/ethernet/atheros/Kconfig:64                                    │ 
  │   Depends on: NETDEVICES [=y] && ETHERNET [=y] && NET_VENDOR_ATHEROS [=y] && PCI [=y]

The prompt will be hidden until the Depends on: is true.

Now, i have enabled Qualcomm Atheros AR816x/AR817x support and have doing sudo modprobe alx.

I have configuring my /etc/conf.d/net file for use ethernet, make symbolic link with sudo ln -sf /etc/init.d/net.lo /etc/init.d/net.enp61s0 and reboot.

But when i start ping test:
Code:
fulgurance@msi-gs73vr-6rf ~ $ ping www.google.fr
ping: www.google.fr: Temporary failure in name resolution


I think my ethernet connection don't use dhcpcd... no idea?

Ok, you have the interface, but does it have an IP address? (An 169.254.*.* address is an APIPA trash address, so wouldn't be useful.)

You can easily check with ifconfig or ip add, both will tell you what your interface ip address is (if it has one). An alternative, is ping an actual ip address like 8.8.8.8 (google's public dns server). If that works, you just need to setup your /etc/resolv.conf to list a nameserver to use.

The resolv.conf, tells your system who to use to convert the www.google.fr to an ip address.

Fulgurance,

One step at a time. Putting it all together, then testing 'end to end ' is not helpful.
We can't tell which bit is broken.

First,
Code:
modprobe alx
Are there any errors on the command line or at the end of dmesg.
If so, stop there and quote them here. Nothing else will work until the errors are resolved.

If step 1 works, step 2 is to look at
Code:
ifconfig -a
Can you see your wired interface?
If not, step 1 was either incorrect, or required but not sufficient.

Provided the interface appears in step 2, make a note of its name and feed it to dhcpcd
Code:
dhcpcd <interface_name>

This should get you an ip address.
look in
Code:
ifconfig
As long as the IP adddress does not start 169, you are good.

At this point, if you have an two IP addresses in the same subnet, one wired and one wireless, your connectivity is likely to be horribly broken.
That's a feature. It can be fixed.

Until you can complete the above steps, in order, successfully, nothing else matters.
Build on what you know works.

Fulgurance,

That's good. Everything I asked you to test worked.

Go into /etc/rc.conf and read the comment above
Code:
#rc_depend_strict="YES"

The default setting is to require that all your network interfaces are working before the network service is considered to be working.
With a laptop, you may use any one interface.

You probably want
Code:
rc_depend_strict="NO"
here.

Now things that need the network will work when either interface works.
Both are not required.

When both interfaces are in use, routing may get confused if their addresses are in the same subnets.
Look in
Code:
ip route show

You will have a set of routes via each interface.
The kernel routing works by matching routing rules from the bottom of the table.
The first match is used to route the packet.

default matches all packets, so how does having two default routes work?

As I said earlier, the easy way to test if it is a name resolution (dns) issue or routing, is try pinging an ip address (not a name like www.google.com). A easy ip address to test would be 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4. If you can ping either of them, but not say www.google.com; it means the system doesn't know how to translate www.google.com to an ip address (that the internet uses).

To define a dns (name resolution server), you can put in your /etc/resolv.conf
Code:
nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 8.8.4.4


Note: If you don't have an ip address, then doing this wouldn't work to begin with, as the computer isn't connected to the network.
