Ubuntu Networking :: Losing Wired Connection Repeatedly?

Nov 1, 2010

I did a clean install of 10.10 just under a week ago and something is really wrong with my wired connection. I keep loosing all connectivity and have to connect again from the panel app. After that, every thing works again for about 30 to 60 seconds and the the connection goes again. No lost connection notification pop up or anything like that, but i cannot browse the web or download upgrades while the connection is gone.

Then the really weird part. Sometimes my connection works just fine. On some boots everything is fine for a long time (hours?) but then the problem comes back. My network card is an Intel 82567LF-2 and it uses the e1000e kernel module. I dual boot to Windows Server 2008 R2 and there I have full connectivity all the time.

Ubuntu Networking :: Wired Network Connection Lowers Link Speed Repeatedly

Apr 1, 2011

I believe I'm running Kubuntu 10.04, but don't quote me on that. Here's the version string from dmesg. Linux version 2.6.32-31-generic (buildd@crested) (gcc version 4.4.3 (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5) ) #60-Ubuntu SMP Thu Mar 17 22:15:39 UTC 2011 (Ubuntu 2.6.32-31.60-generic 2.6.32.32+drm33.14 I have an emergent problem with my wired ethernet resetting the connection on a frequent basis. When it resets it re-negotiates the link speed and I often end up with a 10Mb/s link and on some occasions a 100Mb/s. The configured speed for the link is 1000Mb/s full duplex using a preup ethtool command. I do not use NetworkManager but have the interface configured in /etc/network/interfaces.

Ubuntu Networking :: Losing SSH Connection When VPN Is Activated?

Jul 6, 2010

A friend of mine is running Ubuntu. He used to run Windows XP, but he kept destroying it completely, and I soon got tired of fixing it for him. So I setup Ubuntu, and we're both happier people for it.BUT! The other day he asked me to setup a VPN (PPTP) connection to his workplace, which I promptly did. It also just works, except for one minor problem: When he fires up the VPN connection, I lose the ability to connect to his computer over SSH. As soon as he shutdown the VPN connection, I can once again log in over SSH.I use the SSH connection for basic maintenance and for tunneling port 5900 so I can assist him over VNC.

His nic is setup with DHCP. Gateway is 192.168.57.1. Port 22 is NAT'ed to 192.168.57.2, which is the IP his computer is assigned by the router (it's reserved to his MAC address).

When he connect the VPN, a new interface is created with the IP 192.168.1.32. I'm very much _not_ a network expert. I can manage the very basic stuff, but beyond that I'm quite lost.

Networking :: Keep Losing Internet Connection

Feb 16, 2009

I'm using Xubuntu 8.10, network-manager, Atheros AR2413 802.11bg NIC, and Radeon Xpress 200M with open-source ati drivers.

My problem is that I'm frequently losing my internet connection--whether I'm wired or wireless. It happens most often when I'm watching a ..... video but it happens other times too. My cpu usage is high when watching ..... (70-100%), so that may have something to do with it but I'm here because I really don't know.

I started having this problem when I switched from the proprietary fglrx driver to the ati driver. I switched because my laptop was always freezing halfway through a movie using vlc/mplayer. The ati fixed this but gave me my current problem. I do not want to go back to fglrx.

Here's what I've done so far to try to fix it without success:

-tried using noapci boot option
-tried using a different router
-tried using wicd

When I lose the connection I still have a strong signal. My lshw and iwconfig outputs are the same as before I lose my connection. However, I cannot ping my router when I lose the connection. I have to reboot to reconnect.

Ubuntu Networking :: Losing Internet Connection At Random?

Feb 2, 2010

I am running Karmic AMD64 on a homebrew desktop PC, but I also previously had this trouble on 32 bit with different hardware and on Ubuntu 9.04 and 8.10. The router is now an ADSL+ Thomson TG585n supplied by O2 and badged O2 Wireless box III. The PC has a direct ethernet connection. The router was replaced by O2 when the problem first appeared, as the Wireless box II was suspect. However, I still have the problem and it is getting more frequent.

The symptoms are these: I generally shut down the PC each night, and only fire it up again when needed, which is usually the following evening, but it remains on for most of the day at the weekend. Very often when started, I find I have no connectivity to the internet, and cannot retrieve my emails. Strangely though, the Skype connection is still present and works, although not every time. My wife's laptop is connected over the wireless link - and that STILL WORKS! Sometimes I can connect to the router interface, but sometimes I can't. I've never lost the connection while the PC is running.

I have tried everything I can find in the router (when I can connect) and also in the Systemreferences:Network Connections and also in System:Administration:Network Tools, but can't find anything that helps. A re-boot of the PC doesn't help. A re-boot of the router doesn't help. A hard reset of the router on it's own doesn't help. The only solution to restore the connection is a hard reset of the router (using the recessed reset switch in the back) followed by a re-boot of the PC.

Since the Skype service remains working, and the lights on the router remain normal and wireless service doesn't fail, I think this has to be a DNS server problem. In the previous release, Jaunty, I changed the DNS service to OpenDNS within Ubuntu, overriding the router's settings. That seemed to help a great deal, although there was still the occasional outage which might have been another cause. I can't find anything in the GUI interface in Karmic that will let me do this, and I can't now remember how I did that in Jaunty.

Networking :: Keep Losing Connection On Ethernet Card With Public IP's

Feb 11, 2009

I have a very strange problem with my Linux Router/Firewall machine where i keep losing my connection on the ethernet card.

I have installed a Debian 4 distro on a PC with 2 nics to create a router/firewall machine. On nic-1 i have connected the ADSL modem and on nic-2 a laptop for testing.

What i want is to build a DMZ with public IP addresses assigned to the servers in DMZ.

Schematic example:

Code:

We have a total of 16 Public IP's assigned to the ADSL modem from our ISP configured in routering mode. Unfortunately our new ISP does not support Bridge mode, otherwise i would not have this problem. (we had modem in bridge mode working fine with our old ISP, but they have stopped so we were forced to switch to another ISP. eth1 and eth2 both have public IP addresses from the modem set hardcoded in the /etc/network/interfaces on Linux pc and on my testlaptop in the DMZ (server-1) i have set another public IP (they all fall in the same network range) I have enabled IP forwarding on Linux router/firewall and for testing the firewall is set to allow all traffic.

When i try to ping the testlaptop in my DMZ from a remote machine outside in our datacenter i get no reply.

However when i run the following command: ip addr add xx.xx.xx.xx dev eth1 to assign the public IP i have chosen for the laptop to the inner nic (eth2) and then try to ping the testlaptop again from the remote machine it still does not reply ... but (and here is the most bizar thing)...

When i then run the following command: ip addr del xx.xx.xx.xx dev eth1 (where xx.xx.xx.xx is the ip of the testlaptop) and try to ping again from the remote machine then it seems to be working fine ... however only for a short time because then connection is lost somehow.

Ubuntu Networking :: Losing (dropping) Wireless Connection After Changing MAC Addr?

Aug 8, 2011

Sorry if this has already been solved;answered anywhere else - I tried looking it up but to no avail. The problem persists & the hints I found around the forum did not provide a solution to the case, neither other net solutions i looked up I run Winblows at the lab and sometimes take my Ubuntu PC with me. There is an open Wireless network where they set MAC permission, and there's no pwd to access. It so should be fairly easy to change m MAC and access it, right! No. I run ifconfig and macchange, successfully change my MAC addr BUT the connection drops! Then if I change it back (MAC to my original address) it goes back online. And yes, I shut down the service -- "ifconfig wlan0 down" and then up..WHAT ON EARTH am I doing wrong??? No webpages touch this 'trouble-frigging-shooting instance!

Ubuntu Networking :: Mobile Broadband - VPN - Remote Computer Losing It's Connection To The Server

Feb 21, 2011

I'm setting up a computer with xUbuntu installed and wan't to run it as a PPtP VPN server.

I'm using a mobile broadband for internet connection, with DynDNS wich updates the host with public IP-address.

I've managed to set up the connections and installed the needed packages. The problem appears when I connect to the VPN server through another computer;

When I get connected to the VPN server the remote computer recieves an IP-address from the server (xUbuntu) wich is great! But the server changes prefered network, from the mobile broadband to the wired network wich results in the remote computer losing it's connection to the server.

Networking :: Cable Modem - Losing Connection - Resolved By DHCP Request

Dec 12, 2010

Running 2.6.29-gentoo-r1 on a Sun Ultrasparc 10 with a Sun Happy Meal on eth0 connected directly to my cable modem. Intermittently, with a frequency between a few hours and a few days, I lose internet connectivity. Running ifconfig eth0 indicates all is well and I have a valid IP address but I cannot even ping the cable modem's management address; pings to 127.0.0.1 and eth0's IP address do get a reply but no other address I've tried does. I can 'fix' the problem by issuing

Code:

If I check the CM logs, it appears that it has rebooted itself prior to the loss of connectivity. The strange thing is that the incoming traffic doesn't seem to be affected by this, my PSAD log is full of incoming scans even during the periods when I can't connect to the net. I suspect this is an ISP problem (they own the CM);

Ubuntu Networking :: Wired Networking - Connection Works But No Internet

Jun 1, 2011

I just installed Ubuntu 11.04 desktop on my desktop in dual boot with Windows 7.

Heres my problem, I am unable to connect to the Internet even though my wired Ethernet connection says it is connected normally. The wierd thing about this is that I also have a wireless card in my desktop and when I connect through that I am able to connect to the Internet. I am connecting to a router that is functioning as a repeater to my main router/cable modem. I have tried to solve this myself but am having no luck. Ironically, earlier today suddenly my ethernet connection worked for a few minutes without me modifying anything.

The output of some terminal commands are below.

However a pint to that ip address (my router) is successful.

Ubuntu Networking :: 9.10 - No Wired Connection (Now Offline)

Jan 22, 2010

I have two PCs one has Windows XP the other has Ubuntu 9.10 on it, the Windows PC has no problems getting on the Internet (I'm posting this with it) and getting an IP address from the wired router. The wired router I have is ONLY wired it does not have wireless at all, it is currently setup to hand out IP addresses between 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.254.

The Ubunutu 9.10 PC worked great last night surfed all over the place for hours, then finally shut it down last night when I went to bed, shut down appeared to be normal like it always does when it shuts down, then this morning when I booted it up it gave error: "WIRED NETWORK - disconnected you are now offline".

Ubuntu Networking :: 802.1X Authentication For LAN (wired Connection)

Mar 15, 2010

I am using ubuntu in my new office, and I can't get the network working. The "official" OS installed was a Windows, and it has a special "dial-up" app for the LAN connection (not wireless). My network admin is apparently not helpful, since he actually knows nothing about the internals for the "dial-up" app (he did not even ever heard of TTLS, PEAP, MD5, etc), and claimed that no OS except for Windows can work...

Well, I have tested various configurations with my Mac laptop, and apparently the LAN connection requires 802.1X authentication, and it's using a very weird combination "TTLS+PEAP+MD5" (if I check these options in Mac OS X, the connection works). However, in NetworkManager, I can't select both TTLS and PEAP, and moreover, TTLS does not work with MD5. So, is there anything I could try?

Ubuntu Networking :: Wired Connection: WAN Drops But LAN OK

Aug 17, 2010

I've had a computer running Ubuntu connected to my TV for a few weeks now, but as of yesterday, I can't get it to keep a connection to the Internet. Everything works well for an hour or so after a reboot, but then no WAN connections work. When this happens, no sites load in Firefox or Chrome, I can't ping Google, I can't SSH to the box from work, and none of the pages I have running on apache load from remote computers. However, all local area connections seem to work fine. SSH from within my LAN takes much longer than usual, but it does still connect.

Ubuntu Networking :: 10.10 Wired Connection Not Working?

Nov 1, 2010

I have a wired problem in Ubuntu 10.10, My Ubuntu can connect with Wireless network, however it cannot connect to Wired Connection. I installed dual System, one is Ubuntu 10.10, the other one is Win7. Under Win7, I can both connect to the Internet in Wired or Wireless mode.

The more wired phenomenon is: When I plug in the cable, I can see the icon connected in my network manager. But I cannot visit any URLs. By checking the "ifconfig -a", I can see the IP addr was assigned to my eth0.

Ubuntu Networking :: No Wired Connection On New Install

Dec 16, 2010

I recently did a whole system wipe and got rid of windows all together!! Unfortunately, that means I have to start over with the whole networking thing. I know I have a bcm4311, but I have no idea what I have for a wired adapter. I know that I could search through everything to find what I need, but there is so much info for all the different versions. I have ubuntu studio. Can someone tell me the commands to type into the terminal to find out what I have for the wired network card and recommend a place to get the proper "drivers" to get my computer working again?

Ubuntu Networking :: Wired Connection Not Working

Jan 7, 2011

Running a wired connection through a Linksys router that suddenly stopped working today.I thought this was a ipv6 issue sinced I enabled some of those settings to share a connection with my PS3.I have since disabled IPv6 in Firefox and through the grub. The RealTek adapter will not even show a connection through the network manager when connected.The onboard adapter will show a connection, give me a ip address and MAC but still will not load the internet. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling both adapters through the network connections, as well as reinstalling Firefox to no avail.I've also tried using Open DNS servers.I cannot ping through the network tools either. Hard for me to paste a ifconfig since I'm on my laptop.I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 (not dual booting).I did some updates this morning but it worked fine for a little while after that, until I tried to connect to my PS3.

I'm running 11.04 on a Toshiba Satellite L350, and recently (well, for the past couple of weeks or so), I've been unable to connect to my network via a cable, only with wifi.

It isn't that it's unable to connect, it just doesn't show up in Network Manager.

My housemates, who run Windows, have no problems, so it's obviously something on my end...

Edit: I also tried connecting using wicd, but that doesn't detect it either.
