It looks like the PXE option should be enabled in the Realtek Lan Controller.
You should update the controller's firmware.

The package contains two files: pg8168.exe and 8168def.cfg

Copy these files to the USB Flash Drive that was prepared for BIOS updating.
Boot to the DOS and type the following command:

pg8168 /efuse /manchg

The "PG EFuse is Successful!!!" message should appear.

Perform "cold reboot" at the end of the process.

Please, don't hesitate to contact me if you need more information about the process that is described above.


Probably missing something obvious, but what package? (for the network controller's firmware update)

Cheers,

That package can't be widely distributed. Each package request will be treated individually. Please PM me for an additional information

The patch has been released. The zip file contains img file of a bootable USB drive. Please refer to http://www.fit-pc.com/wiki/index.php/Fit-PC3_BIOS_Update for instruction how to extract an img file on a USB memory device.

To update the Realteck's Ethernet Controller efuse, please boot the Fit-PC3 from the prepared USB drive and run the rtupd.exe file. After the update process is finished, please disconnect the USB drive and reboot the system.

Update:

There was a bug detected in this LAN controller update, and the file was removed. If you have downloaded it before: please don't apply it. The new release will be release ASAP. We apologize for any inconvenience.

The bug was fixed.

Please power off your system and unplug your ethernet cable to complete the update process.
