ethernet not working

Post by redpost »

We have several units that the ethernet ports only work intermittently. Any suggestions on how to get them to work all the time?

What do you mean work intermittently?
What do you mean several units? If so, probably some SW mismatch.
Please try re-install the drivers of the relevant Ethernet controllers.

The ethernet ports seem to randomly appear and disappear in the device manager. We have had 5 units demonstrating this behavior. We have reinstalled the appropriate drivers and got the same behavior.

Please reply what is the HW revision of fit-PC2 you experience the problems with? Which Ethernet controller is on board?
Older revisions use RTL8111C device, while newer use RTL8111F.

I've attached a pic of the ethernet ports listed through terminal. It does not specify if the device is RTL8111F or RTL8111C. I assume rev 7 is the revision number.

Do you use Linux or Windows?
You're saying device manager but the capture is Linux terminal.

Please specify the exact OS.
