Realtek RTL8139 NIC

Does the rtls RTL8139 driver work on SEDE9/07?
Actually Windows tells me I have a RTL8139/810x fast ethernet family chipset but my motherboard ConRoe1333-D667 specifies Realtek PCIE x 1 LAN 8101E.
If it does work and for my chipset - mine is not working. As I am new to unix, how do test it and get it going?
Secondly, how do I connect my desk top, dual boot, to a netgear switch DG834G which is connected to my ISP? It seems the router will do everything but I am not sure how to connect Solaris to it.
In Windows I have set static IP addresses and this works fine.
Solaris seems to want a proxy. The router connects to the ISP using PPPoA and the router offers NAT.
Thanks

Yes, I'm using that chip in my network card. It works in both Solaris 10 and Solaris Developer Express.
Log in as root and run the:

Try to disconnect the network cord from the computer. In the Express you should now see a window telling you that is lost its connection. Put the cord back and you will get a windows that tells you that your connected.
If you have more than one computer. Try to ping the other computer with the IP adress.
eg.
# ping 192.168.1.126
192.168.1.126 is alive
So step 1 is to test the "ping" to another computer on the network.
You can also ping the router. It's usually the 192.168.1.1 or the 192.168.1.0. Does that work?

Please help [Realtek LAN NIC problem]

Hi everyone, this might be a long post but PLEASE read it if you have the time, you might just know the solution to this problem. to begin with, here is my system:
Windows 2000 pro sp4
AMD Athlon64 3000+
MSI K8T Neo (BIOS rev. 1.10)
1 GB (2x512) PC3500 Mushkin level 2 hi performance @ 2-3-2-6 timings
Samsung SATA 160 GB hard drive
ATI Radeon 9700 pro (catalyst 4.1)
Lite On 52x-32x-52x IDE CD Drive
Enermax EG465P-VE FC (460W) 3.3V/35A , 5V/35A , 12V/33A
*There are not any other PCI cards installed.
Now, here is the problem:
I did not notice the problem right away, you will not notice this if you are doing normal browsing or downloads. It came to my attention while I was receiving a file on IRC (using mIRC). while I was recieving the file I noticed that, somehow, I could no longer access the internet at all (neither on IRC, http, ftp .. nothing). I tried to find out why, I couldn't. so I rebooted the system and tried to continue receiving that file ... same thing happens. after a while of digging around my system and experimenting I found that sends from certain people will cause the problem, and i simply need to restart to get back online. this will happen always whenever those certain people send me anything. so, what's going on:
1 - Windows 2000 pro is freshly installed and up to date. i tried XP, it had the same problem; however, 2000pro is the operating system i will be using.
2 - the client is not the problem because i tried another one and the same thing happened. I have also tested 2 other computers and they worked fine (same file .. same person). note that the download was going faster on the other 2 computers.
3 - it is not the router because a direct link to the modem did not solve the problem. also, the other 2 computers had no problem with the router.
4 - i tested the Realtek driver that was included on the motherboard CD as well as the updated drivers from realtek website. that also did not help.
5 - windows reports that the device (realtek NIC adapter) is working properly and that there are no conflicts. realtek diagnostics utility also reports no problems.
6 - Realtek's Gigabit NIC shares IRQ 16 with the radeon 9700 pro, so I figured that i could reserve some of main memory to IRQ 16 to make sure things run with maximum stability:
on system.ini added the line -> IRQ[16] = 8192 (reserve 8MB of main memory for IRQ 16). this did not help. so i removed it.
7 - changing the NIC setting from "auto negotiation" to "100Mbps/Full duplex" did not help either.
8 - one time, the Realtek diagnostics utility was able to reload the device driver, and of course, i was able to go online without restarting. this happened only once. note that I tried to unload/reload the device through device manager many times but i always failed and then i have to press the power switch or reset button to actually reboot. normal windows shutdown/reboot is not possible. the same thing happens when Realtek's diagnostics finishes a test and tries to reload the driver (remember, it only succeeded once).
9 - system logs do not seem to report any problem. i even tried using inspectr.exe to try and find the reason for the driver crash but no crash was detected.
10- disabling the IEEE 1394 controller did not help.
it is obvious that there is something wrong with the driver, but there is a possibility it could be the board/device. if the driver is "flakey", it will mess up. if the device/chip/board is not working properly, then the driver will get stuck just as well.
so, the solution?
I- Hit the wall with my head 7 times (2-3-2) then roll on the ground for a few minutes .. get up and hit the wall 13 more times (2-3-2-6) and then roll on the ground and sleep.
or
II- burn it all .. yes ... BURN IT ALL. MOAHAHAHAHAH!!!
or
III- RMA board or change it :(
I'm trying to decide whether it is the board or if it is the driver. I'm trying to find any excuse not to RMA or change the board. I will be installing linux, and networking is important to get rest of the files I need. I really would like not to rely on flakey hardware or driver. if it is the chip, i have to RMA. if it is the driver, change MB or get a NIC card and install it until realtek decides that it is a good idea to fix the driver.
i tried to check realtek's website but there was very little or no real helpful information to the end user (either that, or i was too upset to find the info i need on their website). I wish they had a forum like this one.
That is basically what i was thinking about .. of course, i could be wrong and the solution might be simple (i wish).
any suggestions, tweaks, patches, information that you guys know about are appreciated and may be of great help. Are there any setting in the BIOS that i need to set in some way to make sure this works properly? would the new BIOS revision 1.20 fix this?
I apologize for the lengthy post. I believe that I've managed to fry whatever brain cells I had left over the past few days. So, I apologize for any spelling/grammer mistakes
thank you in advance

Blaming every problem on the MSI K8T NEO FSR on a 350w power source is utter crap!
Why would ANY Computer hardware shops even SELL SYSTEMS on a 350w powersource on the thousands if a 350watt power source wouldnt be enough for the motherboard, what you are saying that hundreds of HW stores are just saying FU to every customer they sell a computer unit WHICH COMES PRE-EQUIPPED with a 350W powersource!!! I've seen various configurations using a 350w power source working just fine!
I simply DO NOT believe that the system aint getting enough power, that's bull! This would cause considerable UNSTABILITIES and other problems on the system besides dysfunctional S-ATA Hard drives and NIC problems, eg. like artifacts while playing games, crackling in audio, bluescreens and other symptoms!
I just noticed today that my on board NIC had jammed while downloading Torrent files, had to reboot my cable modem, this could be nothing and could simply be an ISP matter, or it could be that my K8T NEO FSR also has a problem with the NIC, again i stress that i havent done really any testing so this raving could be about nothing.
I solved my S-ATA problem by changing back to a similiar IDE 8MB cache 7200 rpm Samsung 160 GB drive. No problems what so ever with register / file corruption! I've also been in contact with VIA who are currently investigating problems with the 8237 Southbridge controller equipped motherboards like the K8T NEO FSR (http://www.viaarena.com -> forums)

H55M-E23 Problems with Onboard Realtek Gigabit NIC

I just finished a new build HTPC using the H55M-E23 and I'm having problems with the onboard Realtek Gigabit LAN controller.
System specs are: OS is Windows 7 - 64 bit. Intel i3-540 @ 3.0 GHz, 4GB RAM, 60GB SSD. NVIDIA GT 430 video card w/ 1MB RAM is only add in card. 300 Watt Power Supply. NVIDIA card is the primary video card and is set up that way in BIOS.
Everything installed fine and seems to work great, except that when I watch HD video, stored on a local NAS on my home network (all gigabit, including cables), about half the time, the Realtek controller will drop to about 10 MBPS, which causes the video to stutter and lockup. The video normally streams across the network at about 23 MBPS max. All other PC's on my network play these videos (home movies) no problem. CPU utilization on the MSI board is only about 5% and the video card's GPU utilization maxes out at only about 65% when the videos are streaming properly. Also, I can copy the video directly to the SSD on this HTPC and the video plays fine. So I think the rest of the hardware on the HTPC is sufficient to do what I'm trying to do. The truly annoying thing is that sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't work.
All the latest drivers have been installed for the motherboard, video card, and Realtek NIC (trying both from MSI's website and Realtek's with the same result). The Windows installation is very clean. I've wiped the SSD twice and done a fresh Windows install and tried this immediately after the Windows install has competed and all drivers installed and again after Windows has completed all updates and I get the same result each time. I've tried several "slow network connection" solutions from Google and none so far have worked.
For anyone old like me, this acts like an IRQ conflict from back in the early days of Windows. Of course Windows 7 doesn't let you mess with IRQ's anymore, at least that I can find. BTW, Device Manager lists the IRQ for the Realtek NIC as "-2", which is very odd to me, but I'm no expert. I'm at the point now of disabling the onboard Realtek LAN and buying a cheap NIC to see if that works, but wanted to try to see if MSI has any suggestions or should I RMA the board? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ben

Yeah, I agree that I'll need to upgrade the PSU anyway. 300W is marginal at best for this setup. I would have probably been ok without the add in video card, but the GT 430 really makes a difference compared to the built-in graphics of the i3 and the card was so inexpensive that it was a no-brainer. I may try to take out the GT 430 just to see if the Realtek NIC behaves better, but I think long term I'll just get a cheap PCI-e NIC and that should fix things.
I would normally suspect the SSD as well, but I get the stuttering when I'm using the network streaming. The videos play fine when running directly off of the SSD. I know the SSD could still cause issues, but everything just seems to point to the Realtek chip. Honestly, I really think it's a driver / setting issue and not a bad piece of hardware, although I could be wrong.
If anyone has any other ideas, please keep 'em coming. In the meantime, I'll try a new NIC, etc and let you know what I find.
Thanks,
Ben

[SOLVED] Can't get network to work (realtek NIC)

Hi there!
I found Arch a couple of weeks ago and I got pretty excited with the possibility of taking my old Athlon 750MHz out of inactivity.
Unfortunately, I can't seem to get the network to work.
* I installed the system using Archlinux-i686-2007.08-2.core.iso
* I have a little router and the machine has static IP

The kernel module for
Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+
is 8139too I think
So /etc/rc.conf should be like this
# HARDWARE
# Scan hardware and load required modules at bootup
MOD_AUTOLOAD="yes"
# Module Blacklist - modules in this list will never be loaded by udev
MOD_BLACKLIST=()
# Modules to load at boot-up (in this order)
# - prefix a module with a ! to blacklist it
MODULES=( 8139too forcedeth sk98lin slhc ac97_bus snd-mixer-oss snd-pcm-oss snd-seq-oss snd-seq-device snd-seq-midi-event snd-seq snd-hwdep snd-$
# Scan for LVM volume groups at startup, required if you use LVM
USELVM="no"
The first one is 8139too, so it will be eth0
In my example the second one is forcedeth for nvidia ethernet controler, so its going to be eth1
Don't forget to edit /etc/resolv.conf

Changing driver for motherboard mounted NIC (Realtek 8169 to 8168)

Hey there.
I'm back from Ubuntu attempting to install Archlinux again, and this time I've found a way to bypass the weblogin necessary for Internet access from my ISP by purchasing a simple DLink DIR-100 router. However, my network connection is extremely jumpy I have come to notice, and there's no saying wether DHCP will work or not. In Ubuntu I managed to resolve the issue by downgrading the driver for my motherboard mounted Realtek 8111 NIC from 8169 to 8168, however I'm struggling to do this in Archlinux.
Is it possible to select the 8168 driver during install?

Well I got Arch up and running along with X, although not yet ALSA, by using the latest .iso. I downloaded an old one, but the installation screwed up a bit, and I ran out of empty DVDs. Still, I got the source for the r8168-8.005.00 driver, and would like to replace the r8169 with it, but what do I do?
On Ubuntu I did it like this (after extracting of course):
> sudo mv r8168 /usr/src/
> cd /usr/src/r8168
> sudo make clean modules
> sudo make install
> sudo depmod -a
> sudo insmod ./src/r8168.ko
> lsmod | grep r8168 # Just to check it's there.
> cd /etc/modprobe.d
> sudo touch blacklist-network
> nano blacklist-network
Add "blacklist r8168" to the empty file.
> sudo update initramfs -u # To make the change permanent.
Logout and reboot.
> ethtool -i eth0 # To check that it's using the new (old) driver.
Already at the third step I run into trouble. It gives me this error message:
I'd have posted a code snippet, but as you can see I'm also having some trouble with X, although it appears every now and then, and isn't bound to this driver exchange experiment. I think. It may have been caused of forgetting to install fonts before I went ahead with Openbox, although except for that and skipping ALSA (because I'm getting an error as soon as I try
> alsamixer
but that's another story) I followed the Beginner's Guide from top to bottom. It may also be the cause of GNOME, which I installed because I found that there was (and IS) something very odd with how my "desktop enviroment" (consisting of Openbox, PyPanel, Nitrogen, Thunar, Conky etc) looked, a slight blur, to be frank. However, when I started X with GNOME, it looked just like it used to in Ubuntu, a sharp and clear display. So something ought to be missing for me, that GNOME has, but I'd rather not use GNOME since it uses almost twice as much RAM as my Openbox combo does according to Conky. If you know what would be the cause of this, I'd be very happy to hear that as well.
Any ideas?
(This is so much fun compared to Ubuntu by the way, go Arch!)

Ethtool bug or driver bug or faulty built-in NIC ?

First the hardware particulars -
- The laptop in question is an Acer Aspire 5050 with an AMD x86-64 Turion cpu
- There is an on-board SATA chip (unused), which throws up some very odd errors but except on slackware distros, seems to do no harm. {It cannot be disabled in the bios either thanks to Acers craptastic bioses.}
- It has an IDE WD 120gb hard drive and an ATI 200M video chipset (xorg IDs it as an 1100 IGP/465 chip)
- The NIC in question is: eth0: RealTek RTL8139 at 0xf8848c00, IRQ 18; eth0: Identified 8139 chip type 'RTL-8100B/8139D'.
- Ethtool reports this in querying the Nic in question:
Settings for eth0:
Supported ports: [ TP MII ]
Supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full

PHYAD: 32
Transceiver: internal
Auto-negotiation: off
Supports Wake-on: pumbg
Wake-on: d
Current message level: 0x00000007 (7)
Link detected: no
Now to the issue at hand
This is not so much a problem as it is an annoyance really. For whatever reason, on several distros that I have investigated, my on-board nic is incapable of being used at the 100mbit setting it is capable of using.
Typically when I first boot a distro, the nic is detected and will work fine, however it runs at half-duplex and on 10mb/s. It is capable of full duplex mode & 100mb/s.
I did alot of research about how I could enable full duplex and 100mb/s modes. I found ethtool to be the answer, or so I thought. However, when ever I've used ethtool, it will set full duplex mode correctly but if I tell it to set the card to use 100mb/s mode, the link itself will not stay up. It insists there is no link detected and restarting the network connection does nothing, as the card never receives an IP address from my router. As soon as I revert the card to 10mb/s and restart the network connection, I receive an IP as expected.
To date, after having googled my brains out, I have not found any solution to this little dilemma. I have asked on a different forum a similar question but the few people there could not give any answers. The only real answer I got was to swap out NICs (a somewhat useless suggestion as it is built-in). I hoped that posting here, perhaps someone with a similar NIC could offer any insight into this issue. Failing that, could someone tell me if I should report this as a bug to some developer perhaps (Ethtools' dev?).
I will provide any other information possible on-demand to any who may have insight. For now, I've posted as much as I could think of to help shed light on this.

There are two Realtek modules, 8139cp and 8139too. See which one is active, kill it, and try the other.

NIC problems on Solaris 10 X86

This has probably been asked/answered before but I couldn't locate it. My X86 install finally went through but I can't see weither (of 2) NIC cards, one is a D-link DFE-530 TX + and I have added the driver_alias commands but still can't see anything but localhost from ifconfig -a, any help would be appreciated...been up for 24 hours now.

There have been at least two different cards from Dlink, with similar model names.
There is the discontinued DFE-530TX and there is a current DFE-530TX+ model.
You may need to take the card out and confirm the actual model.
While you do that, examine the card and find its actual ethernet chipset.
If I recall corectly, the older card uses the DEC21140 family chip, which works natively in Solaris(x86) 7, 8, 9, and 10.
Dlink's website suggests the TX+ card uses the Realtek RTL8139 chipset,
and Dlink has a Unix driver package available for download for that 'plus' card,
although it is bundled inside their Windows-formatted self-extracting driver file for some ungodly reason.
So ... if you have the older card, it should just work.
And ... If you have the newer card, then you may as well get the drivers straight from RealTek.

Can't enable my NIC on my new Satellite C660D-10M

Hy there,
My laptop (Toshiba Satellite C660D-10M) came with Free-DOS. I have installed WIndows 7 and all the required drivers from Toshiba website except the driver for my Network Adapter. I can't go to the Internet because of this!
From this page: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU
I enter the correct info:
Notebook - Satellite - Satellite C Series - C660D - PSC0WE - Windows 7 32bit.
A) There are no CHIPSET drivers for my laptop here? But i think they are merged with the DISPLAY DRIVER and i could install only them.
B) LAN DRIVER - after installing this driver, in my DEVICE MANAGER -> Network Controller has a question mark and is not installed.
Checked BIOS - it is enabled.
Uninstalled, found my NIC SPecific driver on realtek website. Realtek RTL8139/810X Family Fast Ethernet. -> Installed the driver for win7, ----- NOTHING!!!
I don't know what to do next?
Please can you help me?

You are right about chipset driver. By AMD based notebooks it is integrated with display driver.
The same LAN card has Satellite C660D PSC0UE so the right Win7 32bit LAN driver you can find HERE . It must work. All offered drivers are tested.
Please test it and send some feedback.
Have you installed WLAN driver?
Be sure unknown device in device manager list is definitely related to LAN and not WLAN card.

Oracle VM guest NIC vendor

Hi everybody,
Is there a way to change the type of NIC that a guest VM will use? I have Oracle VM 2.2 setup and running fine, all my guest VMs use a REALTEK-8139C+ NIC. Is there way have my guess VM use another virtual NIC? I hope this makes sense. Thanks.

I strongly recommend using PV drivers in all your guests for performance reasons. The only time you'll see an emulated NIC is in HVM mode with no PV drivers. In that case, you can change the model= parameter in vm.cfg to either e100 or e1000 as described in the [C.1 e100 And e1000 Network Device Emulators|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15458_01/doc.22/e15444/templates.htm#BABEDEIF] section in the manual.

Replace NIC Card

Is it possible to replace the Realtek RTL8111E NIC card in a Touchsmart 520-1000z PC?
A Realtek diagnostic program showed the following:
Link status - Disconnected
On a test, MAC Loopback, PHY loopback, IRQ, FIFO all failed. Wake LAN, type in IP address, nothing happens.
I am guessing that the card is dead.
It does not show up on device manager.
Unable to install drivers.
Thanks

Hello Hotbowler,
I understand your Realtek NIC is not working any longer and you are inquiring as to whether or not you can replace it. Unfortunately, your NIC is integrated and thus built in to the motherboard. This would make it impossible replace without replacing the entire motherboard. I obtained this information from the HP TouchSmart 520-1000z Product Specifications and Configurable Options page. There are replacable parts in your HP TouchSmart 520-1000x, unfortunately the NIC is not one of them.
I hope I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

Connected, yet not connected?

ISP: Windstream
Router: Linksys WRT54G2
Laptop: HP Pavilion (Vista SP1)
I have a fiberoptic connection. So no modem, the desktop is hard-wired to the Linksys router. The desktop connects fine, I have no trouble there; the laptop was the same way, until yesterday, it just went dead on me. It says successful connection, yet I am not able to browse the internet.
I was on the phone with HP, Windstream & even Linksys and I did everything they asked. The cause might be something simple, but so far it seems too complicated to figure out, let alone fix.
A list of things I have already attempted:
*I have disabled IPv6, only IPv4 is enabled.
*I reset the router multiple times
*I also tried to change the ip to 10.10.10.1 in the Linksys Setup
*I tried did the DhcpConnBcastFlag fix
Below are the nbtstat & IPCONFIG for Desktop (hardwired) & Linksys (Wireless, while connected to the network)

MSI GF4 Ti-4200 doesnt work with WindowsXP

I can't get the MSI display tools to work - it crashes,
the vbios.dll doesnt load, it also crashes.
the tv in doesnt work ,it crashes
the tv out doesnt work ,it crashes.
all the supplied software also crashes "application has encountered an error and cannot continue. sorry for any inconvenience"
the intervideo software (windvr, wincoder, winproducer) and MSI PVI software all crashes as well.
what's the deal with this stuff? ?(
I have a Dual AMD athlon Tyan thunder k7 motherboard,
MSI Ti-4200-VTD video card and MSI tv anywhere card.
is there any resolution for this?

I'm sorry gfilitti if I don't have my system listed, but I thought my question was pretty simple...
Has ANYONE been able to make the InterVideo WinProducer 2 software, that comes with the retail version of the MSI G4Ti4200-VTD64 card, work successfully under the Windows XP Home or Pro operating system?
If the answer is YES, then I will begin investigating why my system can't.
If the answer is NO, then I only ask for other people's recommendations of what software WILL work in place of that. I NEED those functions to work. That's why I paid extra for the VIVO.
All we've heard so far in this thread are NO votes. I would like to see just how widespread this is. If I can find ONE person who claims it works fine on his/her computer under Windows XP, then my NEXT question would be if they had to do anything different to make it run, or was it just a straight install? Did they add the program patch available from the MSI website? See where I'm going with this?
If you would REALLY like my system details, here ya go...

========================================
BTW, I would think when investigating a program's FLAT refusal to run, that the MOST important things aren't listed in these signature files. It has to do with what ELSE is running at the same time. Which services are running and which are NOT? What memory resident programs are loaded at boot-up? Any service packs installed? How about any security patches from Microsoft? Which anti-virus software (if any)? Which DirectX version? Personal firewall? Etc., etc.
Granted, the hardware DOES have a factor, but I feel all of these are MORE important factors than the speed or brand of a persons hardware. I look at the signitures more as bragging rights than anything else.
Now, this is just my opinion and may not reflect the feelings of the more sane people around me.
Cheers!
