Network Card Support

i cant get my realtek network card (8029) to work with solaris 8 ..please help me

Hi,
Are you installing Solaris 8 for Intel? If so please check the hardware compatibility list.
http://soldc.sun.com/support/drivers/hcl/8/401/files/c0112.htm#NETWORK-1
It looks like realtek network cards are not supported at this point.

T520 won't detect Network card in WDS/WinPE/Ghost image disk

Hello all,
I figured I would just post this so I could save 2 days of someone elses life.
I'm not sure how many other modes have the EFI and UEFI bios's in them but this has caused a lot of problems when trying to capture an image / image the Lenovo T520. So for anyone else that is having these problems here is how I got around the problem.
The Problem:
While trying to boot up off a Capture image with a CD or PXE boot for our WDS server the laptop would not detect the network card giving no IP address and listing the adapter as a hybrid. When trying to do a ipconfig /renew it would give an error around the lines of the loopback something or other ....... the adapter could not be contacted or initated.
I instantly thought this was due to the vanila WinPE / Capture image not having the drivers for the Lenovoo T520, so I went to the website downloaded the new drivers and injected them into the WinPE disk(You will want ot use the NDIS Drivers which are included in the package for this). Following this process it would still not detect or install the NIC. After many hours of searching it would apear this was due to the EFI/UEFI bios options not going through the proper boot cycle when in a PE enviroment. The solution was to mess around with the EFI/UEFI switches in the WinPE boot image during the creation proccess as listed below:
ocdimg -m -o -u2 -udfver102 -bootdata:2#p0,e,bc:\winpe_x64\etfsboot.com#pEF,e,bc:\winpe_x64\efisys.bin c:\winpe_x64\ISO c:\winpe_x64\winpeuefi.iso
The link with more details is here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947024
Eseentially once the new boot image was complied with the proper EFI / UEFI options enabled it went through the proper boot process detected the NIC and installed the drivers which I previously provided on the disk and we where off to the races imaging the new laptop.
Hopefull this will help some others who are struggling with this or any other model that has this type of bios.
Cheers, and thanks
Please feel free to post any additional comments to help others if you found better ways to get around this
One side note the EFI/UEFI to legacy mode only does nothing for the NIC problem, I have seen some posts where they can help with the hard drive issues when imaging, however as for the nic not loading in PE enviroments this setting in the BIOS did not reslove the problem.

Hi Rusty1234
If I did not remember wrongly, you may present or add drivers (network, hardware) under WDS / Ghost software or copy necessary drivers (e.g. your T520 network card drivers) under it's PXE / boot section.
Happy 2012!

How to web filtering via two network cards?

I have Installed Server 2008 and two network cards
on my pc. One LAN card for clients access and one for internet router. I need to share internet connection to my client computers with
web filtering. So how to do that? I need to block some sites to client access.

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to use the WS 2008 to share Internet connection and provide web filtering function for internal clients.
Internal clients –(NIC1) WS 2008(NIC2) – Internet router – Internet network
Manually assign IP address, default gateway, DNS server, etc. on NIC2. Manually assign IP address, DNS server, etc. on NIC1.
Install Network Policy and Access Services – Routing and Remote Access Services. Detailed steps reference:
Install and Enable the Routing and Remote Access Service
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc770798(v=ws.10).aspx
Then open Routing and Remote Access and start configuration. Enable NAT on NIC2 to transfer IP address. Detailed steps reference:
Enable and Configure NAT
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd469812.aspx
Windows Server itself does not support web-based filter, third-party tools with application-layer firewall might be needed to realize this function. Configure WS as a router, it supports IP packet filtering, which specifies which type of traffic is allowed
into and out of the router. Reference：
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc732746(v=ws.10).aspx

Boot Camp Windows 8.1 Installation Did Not Install Network Card

I just installed a Windows 8.1 Boot Camp partition on a new Mid 2013 MBA. The install ran the support software and installed the drivers. However I don't show any network cards in my Windows 8.1 installation. I reran the support sw manually and it went through and supposedly fixed any driver errors but I still don't see a network card or have a network connection. It works just fine in my OSX partition, so it is definately a driver issue. *** do I need to do to get the network driver installed?

In Thehatters defence, this was initially posted in the MacbookPro forum and then moved to Boot Camp,
If you have any joy solving your trackpad device driver issue, feel free to post here (there might be a similar fix for my wireless adapter device)
Thanks

PCI USB2 Controller card conflicts with network card

I've installed a PCI USB2 controller card since my motherboard (IWill K266-R) only has support for USB1. However, the card seems to conflict with one of my network cards, because traffic on the internet-connected NIC is very slow, and often drops completely. Traffic to and from the other (local) NIC seems to work fine, though.
I have tried moving around all three cards in different PCI slots, I think I've tested almost every possible combination by now. I've also tried disabling as much as possible in BIOS, such as onboard sound, serial and parallel ports etc. I've tried lowering the FSB.
For now, I've removed the controller card, and is using the USB1 ports on the motherboard instead. This is very frustrating, though.
Does anyone have any suggestion on what I can try next? I've browsed forums, both this and others, but I haven't found any more hints on what to try. Could there be some setting in Arch that could affect these sorts of things?

"I guess the ATA100 card will work fine correct?"
If you mean large drive support, it may provide that or may require a firmware update to do so. You should check the manufacturer's web site for specifics. All ATA-133 cards do provide 48-bit LBA for large drive support. I'd return the Ultra ATA-66 card to the eBay seller, although many refuse to pay for return shipping, even when the mistake is their own, either through ignorance or deliberate misrepresentation. In cases such as this, it's sometimes more cost-effective to swallow the loss and keep the incorrect part.
"Will adding a jumper apply for a ATA100 card as well? I'll need a blue and gray ribbon correct?"
If you use an 80-conductor ribbon cable with color-keyed connectors, set the drive configuration jumper to CS and connect the drives to the cable as you wish (in terms of physical placement in the computer). If the ribbon cable doesn't have color-keyed connectors, set the jumper for the device connected to the end connector as Master and the drive (if any) connected to the middle connector as Slave.

Network card not relinking..

Last night, our local router siezed up and had to be rebooted. When we brought the router back up, the network card in our proxy server(SuSE Linux) failed to link back up. I was asked to look into the situation and see what kind of sollutions I could come up with. Does any one have any suggestions. I've seen ifplugd and it seems to be what we need, but does anyone have any experience working with this or any other suggested sollutions? This is our first experience with a linux server in a production environment. Also..just a note, the server runs SuSE linux because the admins that I work with like the sescurity of a support contract(understandably so).
Thanks

medicated wrote:Wouldn't the system assume that the cable was uplugged? It will no longer be linking up to anything, so whats the difference between that and simply unplugging the cable?
dunno... I was just covering all the bases... I'm not sure how much of a "link down" ifplugd needs to reconnect... hitting a "reset" button might cause it to not relink... I dunno
Best to just try it out on a desktop of your own (run ifplgud, shut the router off, restart... checking pings and whatnot the whole time)

Good way to determine network card

Is where a better way to find a network card than trial and error?
This is what I've been trying:
modprobe <modules>
/etc/rc.d/network restart
Repeat
The network card I have is built in to my K8T-Neo. The website says the drivers are for these cards:
Supports Realtek RTL8139/810x/c+/8169/8110 Gigabit Network chipsets
I've tried everything even remotely close to the above cards and nothing works. When I type ifconfig I get nothing.

hwd -h
Except to use hwd or lshwd you need to use the network to install. I used to keep the hwd and required packages on a floppy for this purpose.

Does orig. Airport card support WPA/WPA2?

Can a Mac equipped with an original Airport card (802.11b) connect to a WPA- or WPA2-protected network via a third-party router? (Any router — my question doesn't concern a particular router, but is more general in nature.) If so, are there minimum OS or other software version requirements for WPA/WPA2 support with the old card? Is there an Apple article that specifies the relevant requirements and procedures? My repeated searches for one have been fruitless, and this question comes up regularly in some forums I monitor daily where I'd like to be able to answer it confidently.

A Mac equipped with an original Airport card supports only WPA, not WPA2.
Verification of the fact that the original Airport card supports WPA is found at:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107795
A Mac equipped with an Airport Extreme card (or newer) is required for WPA2 support.
I don't know of a Knowledgebase article that specifically states an Airport Extreme card is required for WPA2 support. However, that requirement is clearly stated in the older versions of Airport update software that added WPA2 support to OS X. See for example:
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airport42formacosx1033.html

How do I get an Equium A110-233 to recognise the network card under Linux?

Hi,
I've just bought an Equium A110-233. I partitioned the hard disk so I've got XP and Fedora Core 5 (FC5).
XP works fine when I plug in the network cable, but FC5 (or at least the Linux kernel) does not seem to be able to find and activate the network card.
The message I get is "8139too device eth0 does not seem to be present, delaying initialization". The 8139too module is in memory as is mii (which points to it).
Somehow I need to get Linux to detect that the card is there, but I just don't know how to do that. Can anyone help?
Thanks.

Hi
As far as I know the notebook has a integrated Realtek Network I/F Chip RL8100CL.
I think you should googol around for the compatible LAN driver for Linux which supports this chip.
Unfortunately, on the Toshiba page you will not find any drivers for any Linux distribution because Toshiba doesnt support this OS. ;(

Network cards for Solaris 8 x86

Which network cards are supported by Solaris 8 x86 ?
Thank you !
dorin.

Are you considering any particular cards ?
I have had good luck with DEC21040 (10baseT) and DEC21140 (100baseT) cards
in Solaris 7 through Solaris 10 on x86.
The same can be said for 3Com 3C905C-TX cards.
Solaris 8x86 will recognize many chipsets natively,
and a number of third party developers have created working driver packages.
Most of their driver packages are free, but a few are not free.
Solaris 9 works with a few more, and Solaris 10 works with yet more adapters.
The Solaris 8x86 HCL list has the native cards.
This other Sun web page can direct you toward 3rd party sites.

Configure network card on laptop

I've installed solaris 9 on a NEC versa lx laptop and during installation in does not see the 10/100Mbps 16-bit PCMCIA Ethernet PC Card network card. Can someone help me with this problem?

You need to check the x86 hardware compatibility list to see if that laptop and the interface in it are supported.

How to install a network card on Solaris 10

Hi to all,
I have installed for the first time Solaris 10 on i386 system.
All went fine. Although Solaris did not found the PCI network card, is this normal?
How can I install the (Realtek) network card;
Thank you.
Costas.

Thank you Zettabyte!!
Folks, network printers should NOT BE configured like this:
lpadmin -p somequeue -s someprinter
that creates a remote style queue and puts all the I/O and processing capability on the basic LPD listener present on network printer interfaces. This will cause problems down the road, not to mention that you cannot control access, get any logging, filter content, or control banner pages.
Network printers should use any software (or PPD file) supplied by the vendor over the basic lpadmin/netstandard config.
You can install CUPS, but Oracle won't support it until it's part of the OS (S11, apparently).
The "System Administration Guide: Solaris Printing" is highly recommended for those administering printers on Solaris.

Difficulty getting my network card to work.

Hey there,
I recently converted to arch after the recent kernel update and currently love it. However, even though my network card should be supported, I'm having trouble connecting to any network, whether it be from ethernet or wireless.
I was able to connect to a network through ethernet during the install but not anymore.
I'm rocking a MSI GP60 2PE Leopard using the most up to date version of arch.

Welcome to the forums. Please use code tags when posting command output - and see the stickied threads in this subforum and the forum etiquette guide on the wiki.
Your ethernet cards is found by `lspci` and `ip link` - all seems in order there so far. What have you done to try to connect? The simplest test would be the following:
sudo dhcpcd enp3s0
If that works, then all is well and good, see the wiki on how to get connected automatically at start up. If the above command fails, please post the error messages it provides.
For wireless, lspci doesn't even show any wireless hardware - perhaps it is a usb interface for the wireless, what is the output of the following:
dmesg | grep usbcore

Installing network card in solaris 7 intel version

hai,
i installed solaris 7 in a intel platform. but the network card is not getting recoganised. the card is Compex Readlink RL2000 pci card. how i will configure it. please help me.
shibin

If the card is not recognized, then it's probably unsupported by solaris.
Either you can get a solaris 7 driver from the card's vendor, or you
get a new nic that is support under solaris 7.
