[Help] F2-212 Usb ethernet configuration lost on reboot [SOLVED]

[mfjoerikopf]

I've added un USB ethernet adapter to my F2-212, that is detected by the kernel properly. At first it was not recognized as connected in the control panel / network / interfaces but I managed to get it recognized with the following command.

Code: Select all

ip link set eth1 up

After that setting up DHCP on ipv4 and enabling ipv6 did the proper ip set up on the interface, with link tests not showing any issues.

The problem is that the configuration does not survives reboot, and requires the same operation to get it back. Is there a reason why the USB interface would not be enabled on boot ?

Thanks

I don't know t6he answer to your question, but you could, presumably, set up the same command you have listed as a "triggered" scheduled task under 'power on'. That might give you a temp solution at least.

The TOS 5.1 system does not support external Ethernet adapters, and compatibility issues may arise during use (such as failure to recognize the device). The TOS 6 Beta version has optimized adapter support, allowing external Ethernet adapters to function properly.

I managed to get it set up on boot with schedule tasks with the following script:

Code: Select all

ip link set eth1 up
service S40network restart

I got mistaken that usb interface where supported as A-USBLAN-2.5G compatibility list includes F2-212. I'll give extra attention to network stability. Thanks for the tips and heads up !
