Hi! I?m having trubbles with the speed on my samba server, I just uppgraded to gigabit (Realtek 8169 NIC) at home when i copy stuff from the samba server i get around 5-6Mb/sec and if i use ftp to access the same file on the same server i get almost 30Mb/sec does anyone have a clue what causes this problem? When i used my old 3com 905c for the local net i got normal 100Mbit speed (around 10-12Mb/s...

Hi all, I swapped a Realtek 8139 100M Net Card for a Realtek 8169 Gig Net card in a Centos 5.6 system. After reconfiguring the network settings I find that on boot up the 8169 interface does not start. The startup script says something like "The 8169 is not available..." ifconfig -a shows a device with the right mac address called __tmpsomethingor...

Hello listmates, As some of you may know we have been having a really bad problem with Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8169 cards. See here for details: http://forum.nginx.org/read.php?24,140124,140224 So now my question is, what PCI 1 Gbit/s Ethernet adapters should I use under CentOS? If you have had a consistent positive experience with any particular chipset/brand please speak up. Thanks. Boris.

...XCP 1.0. I''m seeing the citrix hcl (http://hcl.xensource.com) and I''m a doubt. I base that on which version to look for a compatible card? If the kernel is the same as in 5.6.0 FP1, but if the version of XCP uses the hypervisor 3.4.2 neither appears on the list. ps: I had a RTL-8169 but stopped working with update 0.5 for 1.0. It seems that this happened also with those who have upgraded from 5.6.0 to 5.6.0 FP1 . I tried to modify /etc/modprobe.conf inserting "options r8169 use_dac=1", but without effect.

Hi. I have 2 PC's connected with 1GBit NIC's. When I transfer a file from my File-Server(Redhat9.0, 256 SD-RAM, 300MHz PII, RTL8169 NIC, 2x Western Digital WD200JB RAID 0) to my Windows-PC(AMD Athlon XP 1800+, 1024 MB DDR-RAM, WINXP PRO, RTL8169 NIC, 2x Western Digital WD080JB RAID 0) with Samba, i get Speeds around 8-9MB/sec. I think this is too low for an GBit Network, so i tested the NIC's with the Tool Iperf (http://das...

Hi all, I've recently upgraded a system from CentOS 4.4 to CentOS5, and now when the system boots, the r8169 ethernet card doesn't come up. After the boot sequence, if I type "ifup eth1 | ifup eth1.10 | ifup eth1.203" then the adapter starts up ok. It seems to be something with the boot sequence it loads the ethernet adapters a different way around (ie 4.4 eth0 is now eth1 and eth1 is...

I am experiencing poor network performance on Dom0. When i ping other hosts on the same LAN, packets are out of order, and they show response times ranging from < 1 ms to several seconds, and some packets get lost. For example, a typical ping result looks like this: 87 packets transmitted, 80 received, +3 errors, 8% packet loss, time 86038ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev =

Hi guys; I'm having a problem with a new pc that has an Realtec ethernet device. Don't know why the driver is not loading and is not detected during installation process. I tried to load r8169.ko unsuccessfully. It load but no device is detected. No dmesg or /var/log/message. ?Any help on how I can configure correctly this ethernet device?

Hi all, I have what appears to be a truly puzzling problem. I've got this P4 32-bit machine running CentOS 5.5 with XEN that has two NICs: one onboard, an Intel Corporation 82540EM Gigabit and one on an expansion card, Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8169 Gigabit. The second one is recognized as eth1. What's happening is, it is showing up under one of the two MAC's: either 00:0a:cd:1a:c1:71 or 00:00:00:00:c1:71. If you reboot it the MAC stays the same; if you shutdown and do a full powerdown it seems to change. Obviously, after it goes fro...
