What can i do for that? I have a 3com switch that shares some ips. one of them is the 192.168.1.251 How to set the HD to FD and vice versa? Óôßò Mon, 29 Dec 2003 11:01:25 -0500 Stephen Villano Ýãñáøå:

Actually, it also means you are running full duplex (FD). Is your hub/switch and other NICs running in full duplex mode? If not, that is the source of your problem. I rather suspect they're in HD (half duplex), which is the default and most common usage.

Hi

Running the command (root) mii-diag i recieved that the command not found.

Afterwards, i gave the mii-tool command and i recieved the following.

eth0: negotiated 100baseTx-FD, link ok.

I think that the above means that the link to the net is working.

However, i saw the content of the /var/log/messages and i observed the text below.

Dec 29 12:12:00 linux kernel: eth0: no IPv^routers present.

If the problem occurs because i haven't set the router(getway) IP yet, then how can i find its IP? on an private net with ip 192.168.1.x/255.255.255.0 ?

Thanks in advance

Let's start with the basics, some of which I haven't seen mentioned yet. This way we can figure out which options can be used... What network card is the NIC? 3Com model ??? Without that we can't say WHICH of several modules is to be queried. Try in shell: mii-diag and mii-tool Might shed a little more light on the problem. This is the output from one of my servers: hp:~ # mii-diag Using the default interface 'eth0'. Basic registers of MII PHY #24: 3100 786d 2000 5c01 01e1 0021 0000

...

Basic mode control register 0x3100: Auto-negotiation enabled. You have link beat, and everything is working OK. Your link partner is generating 10baseT link beat (no autonegotiation). End of basic transceiver information.

You have new mail in /var/mail/root hp:~ # mii-tool eth0: no autonegotiation, 10baseT-HD, link ok

The 10baseT is obvious as to its meaning. The HD is half duplex. FD is full duplex, which is not a common use... I'm rather wondering if the card might be in full duplex mode with the switch/hub being half duplex... Or possibly a bad cable termination? Had a few flakey connectors drive me up the wall in my day.

If i should change the hardware details within the network card tab then which new settings should i set, where can find them?

Try "modinfo <module name>". This should tell you the options for each module.

What is te module name then? Is it written in the hardware tab of network card settings (in Yast)?
