Atheros AR8132 ethernet no longer detected?

Hello, all. I have an absolutely bizarre hardware issue (concerning the Atheros AR8132 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller) that has been giving me quite a bit of grief for a while, and having completely hit a wall on this one, I'm reaching out for help.
I'm a reasonably-experienced Linux user of several years, and had been running Ubuntu 9.10 on an Acer AOD250 netbook for several months out. I know that this model has wireless issues out-of-the-box (easily fixed), but it did not have any noticeable ethernet issues. That is, until I attempted an installation of Arch.
During the installation, the ethernet card was initially detected, but unable to be used (because of a bad module in the kernel released with the installer). As I didn't know the fix for this at the time, I decided to reinstall Ubuntu 9.10. This time, however, the system failed to recognize the wired ethernet whatsoever. Instead, the external activity lights for the port (green and orange) are ALWAYS on, yet the device doesn't function.
I have done a successful install of the latest drivers directly from Atheros for the device and have them automatically loading with the kernel during boot, but as the device isn't recognized, the drivers aren't doing any good.

Judging by the name, the Atheros AR8123 uses a PCI-E (express) adapter. Especially curious is the following section of the output:

I suspect that my "lost" ethernet card may be on the mysteriously-absent Port 3.
My knowledge of hardware manipulation from the terminal is very limited, and I have no idea where to go from here, so any help will be greatly appreciated.

Well, since this was solved, I had a similar issue with a desktop computer that I built ~ 5 or 6 years ago. I had bought a mobo, it didn't work so I exchanged it for the same model. Got it home and Win XP installed, and found out that the on board network card had a mac address burned in of all 0's, so it didn't work. I didn't want to make the 2 hour round trip to the store again, so I threw in a linksys 10/100 and disabled the onboard lan and called it good. Years later I gave that machine to my parents, and years later again(two weaks ago) I replaced their router while I was visiting. That computer couldn't connect again, I finally figured out that even though the onboard lan was still disabled, windows was showing that card and not the linksys. So I enabled/disabled the bad card, and moved the good card up a pci slot and all was well.
Anyways, your problem reminded me of that, just wondering if it was a similar situation.

  • [SOLVED] Asus 1005PE ethernet | Atheros AR8132 | dhcpcd eth0:timed out

    Hello, this was solved through the following process BUT:
        pacman -Syu updated my system and kernel. After that update I needed
        to reverse the line that I changed before in rc.conf. I change it back to
        MODULes=() [removed !atl1c atl1e] which leads to atl1c being loaded
        autmoatically. Seems they fixed the problem in a update.
    These threads helped me:

    Current driver for AR8132:
    ( III )AR81Family-linux-v1.0.1.6.tar.gz http://partner.atheros.com/Drivers.aspx
    Hardware:
      Asus eeePC 1005PE with Atheros AR8132 ethernet device.
    uname -r:
      2.6.30-ARCH
    Problems:
      eth0 not showing up at ifconfig
      ethernet device not showing up at lspci
      at boot error ar "Start Network"
      dhcpcd: timed out
      ridiculous count of errors Tx, Rx ..
    Removing battery and power cord for a while and then booting without lan cable helped
    recognizing the ethernet device at lspci (and eth0 at ifconfig if I remeber right). Plugging
    the lan cable produced a high count of errors at Tx, Rx.
    (II)
    Get the driver (III) and get it ready(II):
    tar -xzvf AR81Family-linux-v1.0.1.6.tar.gz
    cd src
    make
    make install
    (the note about "#define IRQ_HANDLED 1" (II) wasn't necessary for me. My guess is they updated the driver and it is no longer necessary.)
    edit the /etc/rc.conf, prevent atl1c from loading, add atl1e:
    MODULES=(!atl1c atl1e)                                         [should look similar to this]
    reboot
    After reboot the error "dhcpcd: timed out" or "eth0: interface not found or invalid" was fixed,
    "ping -c 3 www.google.com" was successful.
    lsmod shows atl1e and ifconfig shows eth0.
    I hope this is useful to someone, it took me a while to figure it out.

    I think I saw the lan device recognised once, but rebooting doesn't help.
    I read WPA encryption makes WLAN more complicated so I hope you can help me out with my wired connection.

    This is already in my rc.conf:
    MOD_AUTOLOAD="yes"
    MODULES=()
    USELVM="no"
    HOSTNAME="newton"
    eth0="dhcp"
    INTERFACES=(eth0)
    gateway="default gw 192.168.0.1"
    ROUTES=(!gateway)
    DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network netfs crond)
    I don't see lines missing there.
    Unplugging the power cord and removing the battery for some minutes helped somehow (found that odd tip through google). I booted without the lan cable connected and the Atheros AR8132 / L1c was recognized.
    Got a new problem then. /etc/rc.d/network restart leads to:
    :: Stopping Network [DONE]
    :: Starting Network [BUSY]
    dhcpcd: timed out
    [FAIL]
    dhcpcd eth0 leads to:
    dhcpcd: version 5.0.6 starting
    dhcpcd: eth0: waiting for carrier
    dhcpcd: timed out
    Suprisingly the 1005HA has the same ethernet device and should be working out of the box..

  • Ethernet Atheros AR8132 / L is gone after .34-update

    The ethernet controller: 07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Atheros AR8132 / L1c Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (rev c0)
    was just not showing up anywhere after a update to .34 Has been working just fine until this update. Ifconfig was just displaying the lo interface after the update, which kind of baffled me - I didn't expect an ethernet network card to not work in a newer kernel.
    Thanks to the wireless driver from AUR for my wifi card, I'm online again, but I would still like the ethernet card to work. Also, this should probably be reported somewhere upstream, if it isn't already? I feel a bit selfish when I fin a solution for mysel without sharing it the proper way to save others the trouble.

    Well, a "modprobe atl1c" makes my card (which is not th same as yours - which is even a wireless card, using a diferent driver, so probably no relevance) show up in networkmanager and ifconig output. I am currently moving, so I have no ethernet cable availible to see if it actually works. But strange that the driver is not detected and loaded automaticly.

  • My MBP 7,1 wifi connection suddenly stopped working. It was working fine before until the battery emptied. I turned it on but it froze so I tried to reset it. Then, after that it no longer detect any wifi signal in any areas I go.

    Hi Everyone. My MBP 7,1 didn't have any wifi issues not until 2 weeks ago. The laptop's battery got empty and when I tried to turned it on, the computer just froze. So I tried to reset it. However, I noticed that the wifi or airport can no longer detect any wifi signal. There were instances that it wouldn't turn on when I shut it off but now, it seems okey. I tried the zapping of PRAM and deleting all the things needed as I saw in different threads but it still not working. The ethernet works fine but I still need the wifi. Its been 2 weeks already. I don't have an Apple Store near me coz I am in southern part of Philippines. Can someone shed light on this? Thank you so much.

    Hi!! To add more to the issue, the other day, my airport card is nowhere to be found. It now says no airport card installed which is really crazy. I also noticed that my MBP freezes during start up and I had to zap the PRAM so it would open up. Anyone there who experienced the same thing? I'd really appreciate your suggestions. Thanks!

  • Hi, My network went down earlier in the week.  Now it is fine, but my macbook airport no longer detects it and keeps asking for a WAP.  When I put the password in, it 'times out'.  I'm getting rather fed up.

    Hi, My network went down earlier in the week.  Now the network is fine, I can connect through the ethernet cable, but my macbook airport no longer detects it, when prompted, macbook will find it, but I get asked for the WAP.  When I put the password in, it 'times out'.  Prior to the network problem my macbook worked fine everytime. Anyone know the answer?

    My guess is all the issues are probably related and fall back to malware.
    AVG is probably correct in identifying malware. So I suggest you try some cleaning tools other than Emsisoft .
    ones I use (all of them one after the other until I find one that can cope) are;
    Roguekiller http://www.adlice.com/softwares/roguekiller/
    Malwarebytes anti malware Free http://www.malwarebytes.org/mwb-download/var2/confirm/
    ESET online scanner http://www.eset.com/int/home/products/online-scanner/
    So first create a clean boot in Windows using Microsoft's instructions https://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135?wa=wsignin1.0 and then run the anti malware applications.
    My outside looking in guess is that malware has set itself up as an internet proxy and is is downloading copies of itself and other malware, blocking some mail port as times as downloading more malware is more important, and probably breaking your tivo as well..
    Try the malware programs first. If that does not work I will try and talk you through some logging to see what is happening.

  • MyBookLive drive no longer detectable on network

    I am having trouble with my MyBookLive network drive. Ever since I rebooted it, it is no longer detectable on the network. It is correctly connected to the router but the router just doesn't seem to pick up that there is a network drive attached to it. I know it is not an issue with the router as I tried a completely different router but the exact same behavior is observed. Also this exact same setup was working fine without a problem before I rebooted the drive. The drive powers up fine and I can hear it spinning and even the LEDs next to the Ethernet cable light up; it's just not being detected on the network. So I detect it is a problem with the drive's network adapter not being able to obtain an IP address from the router. Please advise me how to proceed in order to resolve this issue.

    Hi, Thanks for your replies and suggestions. The short answer is, yes I tried everything and the issue is still the same. The drive is just not recognisable on the network at all and not visible in the list of attached devices on the routers web page. The front LED on my drive has NOT worked for the past year at least, but despite that, it has never effected the operation of the drive. So unfortunately we cannot use it to diagnose the problem. I did try to reset the drive using the reset button at the back however it does not seem to do anything. I cannot notice the drive rebooting or maybe because the front LED is doesn't work, it is not obvious whether the reset has actually been triggered or no. Regardless, it has NOT resolved the problem. I did try a different router and Ethernet cable but the issue does indeed remain the same. Pinging the device fails because the drive is not recognizable on the network at all, even though it is powered on (I can feel it running) and connected to the router correctly, and even the LEDs on either ends of the Ethernet cable are alight. I tried the direct connection to the computer without a router but the same is observed. I cannot see the drive on the network and hence ping fails with this setup as well. So I think it is either an issue with the drives network adaptor or operating system. Is this something that can be repaired do you think? Thanks again 

  • My 2 notebooks running XP will no longer detect the BEFW11S4 WAP, what can I do?

    My 2 notebooks running XP will no longer detect the BEFW11S4 WAP, what can I do?
    The connections just stopped yesterday. Both laptops work OK when connected by ethernet cables and my main PC running XP64 connected also by ethernet is not affected.
    Both laptops can see my neighbour's wireless network and worked OK with my son-in-laws network last night when I took them over to his house.
    Can I assume that the "wireless component has died?
    Any recommendations for a direct updated replacement?
    I'm currently connected to NTL broadband but may at sometime switch to Sky broadband in the future but I understand that I would not be able to do this with my NTL phone line.

    Thanks for the comments Charrie21,
    SSID Broadcast is enabled,
    Of the 3 leds on the front left:
    WLAN ACT is not illuminated
    WLAN Link is illuminated [According to the instruction because it is connected to a cable modem],
    POWER is illuminated.
    Of the 3 leds on the front right:
    LINK is illuminated,
    ACT is not illuminated,
    Diag in not illuminated.
    The router has been reset  several times.
    SSID has been changed several times
    Channel number has been changed several times
    WAP was previously 64BIt and has been changed to 128Bit
    Firmware version is the same date as currently on the Linksys web sute for this model.
    I am thinking the "wireless" component is dead.

  • WRT300N no longer detecting network

    Hello,
    After a loss of power the WRT300N is no longer detecting the network I have setup.  Other wireless networks are shown.  I hit the reset button already, and nothing changed.  I tried to access http://192.168.1.1/ as suggested elsewhere but I am not getting an internet connection at all when the router is hooked up to my laptop via ethernet (all lights are green on the router except wireless and security).  I also attempted to add the router via Vista and it asked for the PIN which I cannot find.  I also tried to reload with the Linksys software and it could not detect the router and said to check the connection.  
    I am using Vista and am relatively computer illiterate.  I am a poor grad student who can't pay Linksys $30.  I'd appreciate any help or suggestions.  
    Thank you. 

    When I got to the third step (Checking the Router’s IP Address), nothing was listed for "Default Gateway" (message below).  I cannot get to step 4 (Getting the DNS Servers from a Linksys Router) as I cannot access the site (no internet connection through the router).

  • [SOLVED] Network interface enp2s0 no longer detected

    Hello,
    Yesterday after rebooting, right after Grub, systemd-fsck does its stuff (clearing blocks, etc...) then nothing.
    After a quick research I've found that removing "quiet" from the Grub command line would allow more messages to be displayed, which was quite helpful.
    This is in fact not a partition mounting problem, here is what I have:
    [ OK ] Started Accounts Service.
    [ TIME ] Time out waiting for device sys-subsytem-net-devices-enp2s0.device
    [ DEPEND ] Dependency failed for dhcpcd on enp2s0.
    [ OK ] Reached target Multi-User System.
    [ OK ] Reached target Graphical Interface.
    I obviously have a networking problem (and probably a "Graphical Interface" or Nvidia related thing problem), so I log in another console, and after doing ip link list, I only have the loopback listed, no enp2s0 or WiFi interface, for some reason they are no longer detected.
    I've run the live version of Arch to mount and arch-chroot my partitions, not to mention my network interfaces are detected and I can upgrade things with pacman, I've tried to disable dhcpcd on enp2s0 to avoid the time out thing, and while I can say it does what it's supposed to do, it doesn't solve anything anyway since I'm still stuck at Reached target Graphical Interface. (and don't have any network access, to state the obvious).
    I've even thought about a Kernel/Driver problem after an update, but I'm not sure, any idea or some log I can have a look at ?
    Thank you for your time.

  • AirPort Stopped Working Suddenly - No Longer Detected

    Hi guys,
    I've been using my iMac 20" duo core for just roughly a month, and have been connecting online via my Airport Express wireless to get online. This morning, while using iTunes and listening to my music wireless, my iTunes froze up, and all my wireless connections were lost. I tried to restart my computer, but after that, I have been unable to connect to my wireless connection. I have checked my Network status and Internet Connect, and apparently my AirPort is no longer detected (Msg: No AirPort Hardware Found). I am still able to connect via the Ethernet, but that's the best I can do. I have tried checking updates and all, and have ran the Hardware Test, but have not been able to fix this problem at all. Pulling the plug and restarting have done nothing either.
    Can someone please advise whether it can be solved, or if it's a hardware issue that I have to bring down to the retailer?
    Thanks,
    Ying Loong

    Hi -
    in response to the original question as to whether or not the problem can be solved, I am curious if the original poster did in fact solve the problem?
    I asked these same questions back when I got my 20" Core Duo and had a very similar problem. I went so far through the AppleCare phone calls that they finally told me to take it to the local Apple Store and have them fix it. The tech did nothing. I got the computer back with a "no problems found" answer and to this very day it still has the same problem. In my case however, the computer will "see'" the network again if I unplug the computer for 15 seconds.
    I have worked around the issue by connecting the iMac to the router with an Ethernet cable, but what's the point of having a wireless router and a wireless computer if the wireless doesn't work?
    It's very disappointing to me, considering this is the 4th Apple computer I have owned that had AirPort built in, and it is the ONLY one that has EVER had issues. It has to be a hardware/firmware issue, because I have other AirPort-enabled computers currently on the network and they work fine and have NEVER lost the network. This is ridiculous, really - it is embarrassing to show non-Mac users my fancy new iMac, and tell them "it's great... only the wireless card doesn't work."
    I haven't visited these discussion forums in a long time (essentially after realizing my problem wasn't going away I just gave up) but I see that a large number of people are still having wireless connection issues with these Intel Macs. I hope Apple is doing something to correct this issue, but I won't be holding my breath.

  • Windows no longer detecting my Audigy 4?(Non-P

    Hey all. I've had my Audigy 4 (non-Pro) installed and working super for about 50 days, but it started giving me a weird problem. Windows was no longer detecting the card! It was weird. DX Diag, programs like EVEREST... they all report no sound card whatsoever.
    Here are my PC specs:
    XP Home Edition
    Albatron K8X800 Pro
    S754 3200+ ClawHammer
    x 2 OCZ ELPE 52 MB(2-3-2-5)
    Visiontek XTASY X850XT PE
    x 80 GB SATA 2 Seagate, x 80 GB Maxtor
    Some other things to note:
    XP has been repaired. Went from Service Pack , updates, and all the way to Service Pack 2. The card requires XP w/SP2, yes, so I have that covered.
    Onboard audio is disabled through the bios. I have AC'97 integrated audio on this.
    My motherboard has fi've PCI slots - although I can only access 4 because my video card is in the way, and I have tried three of those and I get the same problem.
    I have tried it in other PCs in my house, double-checked each time - so it is not ESD as I originally believed. It works just fine on those PCs. It is being not located only on MY PC.
    So guys and gals, I do not know what to do... I am stumped. It's the weekend so I can't call Creative support until Monday. I don't want to request an RMA through my warranty because clearly it's just a problem with my PC. What should I do?!Message Edited by Celsius on -26-2005 07:36 PM

    One of my Iphones is no longer detected by the itunes/computer that it is synched with.  The computer/itunes does detect other devices.  The iphone in question is able to be detected on another computer/itunes.
    I updated software oof iphone on another computer.  I updated itunes on the computer that does not detect the phone.  I rebooted both.  I tried software conflict.
    Does anyone have an idea how to resolve?  I have all of my contacts, apps, photos, music etc on that computer. 
    When I updated phone software on another computer to see if that was the problem it wiped out all music,apps, photos etc on the phone.  I have thee devices with one apple id and they are synched to different computers. 

    You should try another USB cable, charging and sending data through the cable is not completely the same, sending data is using other contacts inside the plug or docking connector.

  • Windows XP is no longer detecting the iphone

    Out of the blue my desktop is no longer detecting or charging my iphone. It doesn't show up in device manager either.
    I have reinstalled all software,drivers and no luck. All services are running.
    It works fine on my laptop and charges fine on the wall charger.
    I have tried my friends iphone on the desktop and it also does not get detected, so I assume it has to be some software problem.. Any ideas?

    Hello,
    I have a similar problem now. Only addition is that the phone itself is not working either and when i connect to comp it results in opening of 'Found New Hardware wizard'
    Did you find solution to your problem???

  • URGENT HELP NEEDED - iPhone 3Gs no longer detected or charged by MacBook

    My iPhone 3Gs (3.1) has been running fine, until several hours ago today, when I plugged it to my MacBook, the iPhone is no longer detected - it doesn't show up in iTunes, nor it is charged. I tried opening iPhoto, and it wasn't there too. Not with Image Capture too. I tried charging it using the out-of-box wall charger using the same out-of-box USB cable I use for MacBook, and it can be charged without any problem. Then I put it into Recovery mode, and there iTunes can see it. I don't want to restore it before I figure out exactly what went wrong, as I don't want the restore process somehow gets stuck in the middle that the connection is lost again.
    I've tried reinstalled iTunes, including completely removal of Apple Mobile Device Support, as instructed by Apple. But still no luck.
    I've tried switching to another USB port of my MacBook. No luck.
    My iTunes is the latest 9.0.1, and my Mac OSX is 10.6.1. My iPhone is on 3.1, upgraded from 3.0.
    I've read from web that it seems I'm not the only one out there having this problem. But none of them seem having any real working solution.
    Urgent help needed & appreciated. Millions of thanks in advance.

    1. I used both cables - theirs & mine ... and on several macs
    2. yes, same cable for wall & mac
    3. as said, i did completely remove & install itunes (incl. apple mobile device support), as instructed on the apple webpage
    anyway, did a restore just now. it seems okay now. but the problem is i have no idea what cause this, and i can't replicate the problem. so i don't know when it will happen again ... maybe a bug with os 3.1 ... others on web said os 3.1 is quite buggy ...

  • IOS 5 used to allow Airplay between iPad (WiFi) and Apple TV (Ethernet) as long as they were on the same network. In iOS 6, now both the iPad and the Apple TV have to be on the same network and both have to be connected using WiFi ? Why did they change ?

    iOS 5 used to allow Airplay between iPad (WiFi) and Apple TV (Ethernet) as long as they were on the same network, i.e. connected to the same wired/wireless router. In iOS 6, now both the iPad and the Apple TV have to be on the same network and both have to be connected using WiFi ? Why did they change this ? Means that the iPad and the Apple TV box both have to be in range of the wireless router when this wasn't a restriction before. Apple TV could be anywhere as long as it was connected to the same wireless router via ethernet cable. Seems like an unnecessary thing to restrict.

    I have found with AppleTV that it is the IPV6 on the computer you want to access is the problem.  The issue is that Homegroup on Win 7 or Win 8 requires IPV6 to work, but AppleTV won't work with IPV6.  (So maybe double check you have IPV6 turned off)
    So you have to make a choice - Homegroup or AppleTV.... but you can't have both, until Apple brings ATV up to date. (crazy that it does not recognise IPV6 - c'mon Apple!)
    You can set up sharing individually in Win 7 or 8 and have the ATV access files that way.
    Having said that, there is always the exception.. I have an old HP home server running Win8 and it services ATV - but is part of the Homegroup... have no idea why it works on both, but no other machine on the home network will talk to both ATV and Homegroup at the same time!
