Title: Green connection drops out during boot
Post by: xx on Sunday 23 May 2010, 09:35:00 am
Hello,

I am new to endian and have a issue after a fresh install. I have searched the forum but did not find a similar problem, hope someone can help.

I have just installed endian community 3.2. Install is fine. Then the Green nic gets assigned to another network card, took a few minutes but worked that one out.

So all goes well, install and the initial configuration. Then after about 3 mins the green connection will just drop out and I can not connect to the web admin page again.

I ran a ping 192.168.0.15 -t and reboot endian, around about 20% into the boot it and ping endian, then at about 60% it drop the connection.

I have no idea, can someone please help.

I have endian setup one a PC connected to a switch via the green nic and a laptop connect to the switch so I can access the web admin page ?

any idea would be great

Update

I have just re-installed using a different nic. everything was working fine, until i connected a network cable to the red nic. As soon as I did the green dropped out.

I have a adsl modem/router. Which is set to DHCP I connect a network cable into a port on the router then to the red nic, is this correct ?

Not sure why the green drops out when the red is connected

Same thing happens with the new nic.

Must be something to do with the modem/router

OK, I have it working now.

I set the red to Ethernet static and assigned it an IP address.

Is this correct? Should the modem/router have dhcp on, or is it correct the way I have it ?
