Title: USB Network Cards Post by: gtjr92 on Monday 07 September 2009, 04:35:28 am I need to add a 3rd nic to my server, I have no PCI slots everything is on board.
Can I use a USB network adapter with endian? Is there on brand that works better than others? Thanks Title: Re: USB Network Cards Post by: bayross on Wednesday 28 October 2009, 12:52:20 am So far I have tried 2 different USB NIC's and neither of them worked. One was detected in the Endian GUI but said it was "Unknown" and the other one did not even show up. If you find one that does work, please let me know as well.
Current specs that I am running Endian Firewall on: Core2Duo 2GHz 4GB of Memory 80GB 7200RPM HD 2 NICS - Broadcom and D-Link Thanks, Garrett Title: Re: USB Network Cards Post by: ad.aimm on Wednesday 28 October 2009, 01:40:07 am hi,
this one works great : D-Link USB 10/100 - DUB-E100 it's an unknow device (u can reconize it with mac adress), but it works well (tested on 2.2 and 2.3 rc1) good luck ad. Title: Re: USB Network Cards Post by: bayross on Wednesday 28 October 2009, 01:43:26 am Thanks. I will pick one up tonight if I can find it at TigerDirect.

However, whenever i tried to work on it, it never did anything. Id love to get those usb cards working, currently im getting stuck cause my onboard isnt supported and ive run out of pci slots :( Title: Re: USB Network Cards Post by: satish on Monday 11 January 2010, 04:41:01 pm Okay I got a mcs7830 which shows up as eth3, however, i am unable to get it to do anything above and beyond just being recognised, I am essentially unable to use it.

Does anyone know which USB network cards are supported in ver 2.5.1+ ? I have a USB network card which shows as UNKNOWN, it seems to work, the web interface detects it and can configure it as eth1 RED zone, but it keeps resetting the firewall frequently (4-5 times a day). Thanks Raff Title: Re: USB Network Cards Post by: kouzoulos on Saturday 29 December 2012, 11:41:35 am Hi, Does anyone know which USB network cards are supported in ver 2.5.1+ ?

Thanks Raff I have a Trendnet usb Ethernet card and I have no problem. Everything runs perfect. Maybe it is the drivers of your card. |
