When I first noticed the problem the link leds on the switch weren't on. Then I tried a different cable on a different port. Afterwards I installed Win 7. After installing the driver it could connect to the internet with the second cable attached to the second port. Thereafter I tried the cable which was attached to my laptop and a third port on the switch. The laptop has no problem connecting to the internet. It's really strange :-?

But I don't know if the firmware bug (line 262) may be the problem. On the Shuttle website the BIOS version 1.03 is the newest one which is the on that's installed on my box too. The interface broke some time ago but with Debian and OpenELEC there was no problem only with Ubuntu. Really strange.

With the UNetbootin's Debian Stable_NetInstall_x64 option it's not possible to skip the network setup. But with this one it is: http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/6.0.3/amd64/iso-cd/debian-6.0.3-amd64- netinst.iso I installed SSH server and Standard system utilities. `dmesg | grep -i firmware` returns "[ 0.874429] pci :00:1f.0: [Firmware Bug]: TigerPoint LPC.BM_STS cleared" `lspci | grep Ethernet` gives "02:00.5 Ethernet controller: JMicron Technology Corp. JMC250 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 03)" `ifconfig` lists only the loopback interface. I can run `ifconfig eth0 up` and then eth0 is listed by `ifconfig`. I added the following to "/etc/network/interfaces" without any difference: "iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.1.201 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.1.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255 gateway 192.168.1.1" You wrote in your first answer I should update to the newest kernel. At the moment is 2.6.32-5-amd64 installed. How can I do that without a network connection? What else can I do?

I looked up the online specs for your device and there is no mention of the network chipset used, but I'm guessing it is one of the newer RTL chipsets. You can still use the netinst, because it does have the minimum amount of packages. Afterwards make sure you run the latest kernel from stable or even backports. You might also need firmware, a dmesg | grep -i firmware should tell.

Network not working on Shuttle XS35GTV2
Hi all I used a Shuttle XS35GTV2 as XBMC frontend with OpenELEC. Since some time it lost its Network connection (I use ethernet not WLAN). I have no clue why this happend. I suggest it was due to the OpenELEC update 1.02. Since I'd like to use XBMC as MythTV frontend too I want to install Debian stable and compile XBMC PVR libcmyth [1]. I'd like to have a only a minimal system to compile and run XBMC. Therefore I wanted to install Debian stable netinst AMD64. But the installer can't setup the network interface which is quite strange as it worked after I discovered problems with the Ubuntu installer and then switched to OpenELEC. I posted it to the Ubuntu mailing list [2]. I installed Windows to check that there's not hardware failure. Can you help me getting the network interface running for the netinst? Or would it be easier to install Debian using ISO-CD or DVD and then somehow fix the problem?
