thats what the sticker says

[froyic]

had to reboot again, ran dmesg and found nothing , lan cable just lose connections is like is disconnected the cable but is not the cable i come from openbsd and that did not happened, it started with openwrt, please help im puzzled and exhausted and i do not know what to do, the usb adapter is recognized in LSUSB but if i type ifconfig it wont show eth2 it show only eth0 and eth1 not eth3

[frollic]

there wouldn't be an eth3, if there's no eth2.

[froyic]

this the dmesg when it exploded , it do not show anything weird, just stop working, it says cable disconnected, yet eth0 (intel) can ping to modem, but realtek shuts down i do not know what is happening, how can i start using the usb lan as eth? i mean lsusb detect it but ifconfig shows no adapter

[froyic]

@frollic

there wouldn't be an eth3, if there's no eth2.

i agree, its eth2

[froyic]

is there any way to see openwrt logs? like cat /etc/logs or something? sorry for being such a ignorant

[frollic]

dmesg for past log entries, logread -f for future entries.

[froyic]

thank you!!! , logread -f will do the job now we arent blind, just we have to wait for the fnord again

@frollic

dmesg for past log entries, logread -f for future entries.

[frollic]

there's no proof of any communication issue(s) in that photo, that I can see.

ctrl-c the logread, and run a continuous ping towards som IP on internet, even your ISPs DNS, if it replies.

[froyic]

if i run ping i get response

[froyic]

here is the logread -f, just redacted ips, yes it crashed again (reposting)

[frollic]

that's the whole point, keep it running.

see if it starts to fail once you have an outage.

@froyic

dmesg eth0 realtek RTL8139 is not an 8139c+ compatible chip, use 8139too

I thought you installed 8139too - per another thread?

Integrated PCI Realtek Ethernet Missing Driver x86_64

i am sorry my friend i am broke and i cannot afford a good nic... i am trying so hard like the song found this in a forum: > -device rtl8139 OpenWrt has a policy to try to build minimal kernel profiles and supply drivers/modules as extra packages. Install one of > kmod-8139too > kmod-8139cp but the problem is the img compiler is ... i get the red box error i do not know why there is not message

[froyic]

@frollic

keep it running.

will do, thanks

[froyic]

@lleachii

thought you installed 8139to

it is already installed

[lleachii]

Then I would uninstall the wrong one (review message again). I don't see any post noting you resolved that issue posted from the log - my apology if you fixed it already.

[froyic]

it is weird because 8139to did not worked, 1000e did the job

[lleachii]

@froyic

because 8139to did not worked, 1000e did the job

Your statement is unclear. I'm not sure what you mean when saying an Intel driver "did the job" for a Realtek NIC.

Also, to be clear, it's e1000e.

[froyic]

sorry , i mean the 8**too did not make the realtek work, it was the e1000e that made it work, i believe, i do not know what to think, it crashed again, the ping did not stop so is not wan is lan

dmesg

logread -f

[lleachii]

Let's try one more time:

@froyic

i mean the 8**too did not make the realtek work, it was the e1000e that made it work, i believe

As I already noted, this belief is incorrect - and your log clearly shows otherwise.

It seems you fixed the 8139too (or you just didn't show us this previously).
