i ran the mandrake wizard and i have now ip address 192.168.254.10 on eht0 and eht0 is up. to test the card I ping 192.168.254.10 and it does reply correctly, then i plugged it into a hub where i have an other machine with an ip address 192.168.254.17. Both machine can't see each other, if i try to ping 192.168.254.17 from 192.168.254.10 it does not work.

Re: Re: [newbie] Ethernet Interface
Ah maybe this is the problem, my network card is an 100Mps and my hub just 10Mps, maybe the speed on the network card is not correct for the hub. But otherwise on the back of the NIC the light is on and the hub as well.

Re: Re: [newbie] Ethernet Interface
done that, still no response to ping from 192.168.254.17. To avoid problem with my hub I used a crossover cable to plug directly both machine running 100Mps NICs. I looked at the logs in logdrake and I get that: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out eth0: Setting 100mbps full-duplex based on auto-negotiated partner ability 45e1. Maybe this is relevant to my problem?

Re: Re: [newbie] Ethernet Interface
I followed your instructions and the card is now set to 10Mps half duplex but i still can't ping the other machine. Thanks for the tool is good to know. It's look like that nothing can go out or in from the networkcard. Am I doing something really wrong on that card? Do you think I need to change it to something else? From: Derek Jennings [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 2003/02/18 Tue PM 04:36:06 GMT To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Re: [newbie] Ethernet Interface It sometimes happens that the autonegotiation used by Ethernet devices to select 10/100Mbps, half/full duplex fails. In this case you can force the interface to a particular mode. The driver used for your card should be 8139too (you can confirm this by looking at the file /etc/modules.conf one line should read alias eth0 8139too ) There is a tool available which can set the mode of your interface. Install the net-tools RPM from your Mandrake CDs using Software Manager. (TIP: enter 'urpmi net-tools' in a root terminal for a faster way to install software) Then try mii-tool in a root terminal to see if that can read the card status. To force 10Mbps operation half duplex (normally needed with a hub) mii-tool --force=10baseT-HD eth0 These settings will not survive a reboot, so if they fix your problem let me know and I will show you how to make them permanent.

[newbie]
Hi, I am new to linux so I apologise in advance if this question has been asked before. I am trying to connect my box to an ADSL router. Normally the router should assign an IP address to my NIC as well as the gateway...by dhcp. When i run dhcpdc the router doesn't assign the IP address, nothing is happening. I try to check my NIC (realtek RTL8139A) by asssigning a fixe IP address and pinging it. It does reply on itself but it is not working when i try to ping an other machine. Any suggestions?
