Unable to connect to network Lan with Aspire one (Solved)
Unable to connect to network Lan with Aspire one (Solved)
The problem seems to be puppy does not see the Lan.
It sees a wireless connection but no ethernet Lan.
I have tried to load random Drivers but no go.
I also have been unable to determine what kind of lan hardware it has. I have run hardinfo but don't see a land connection. it only shows lo, wmaster0 and wlan0 but no eth0.
puppy seems to work ok except for connection to the network.
Any help on where to find what kind of hardware is used for the ethernet lan or what driver to use would be appreciated.
Thanks

This kind of thing happen to too often to think there is no card there.
You can try several things.
SNS that Barry have in some puppies does work with some cards where the other fails.
And Luci-237 often are able to get a connection when other fails.
I would try to do many frugal installs of different puppies say three different depending on what hardware it is.
So don't give up. Us the wellminded search to see if others have had same problem and found solutions for it.
Puppeee maybe work but test luci-247 too.

I think NOOBY may be right I may need to try other puppys but I like 4.3.1

Isn't there a little switch to activate the Ethernet port?
Or is this only for the WiFi device?
When you connect the Ethernet port to the port of the router/modem, normally at each side of the cable a little green light is burning to indicate the connection is made physically. Do you have this?

If there is a switch I don't see it, there is a small empty square hole next to the RJ 45 but no lights.

Sorry, I was mixing two similar problems raised.
You did reply all questions.
So to repeat, you can connect with Windows through the cabled connection.
Please execute in a terminal/console lspci and post the result here.

I was thinking I should see the ethernet hardware listed in hardware information list.
Also when I look in the message log the ethernet hardware does not show up. However the Wifi hardware does show up.
You would think the Lan hardware would be easy to locate.
I know the hardware is present because I can use M$W with the hard drive and access the network.

Sometimes the software shut down the lan card so it fail to be seen by next OS.
I have that phenomena on my Acer D250 and sometimes even the Wifi is not seen.
To repair this I've found on the internet that if one take out battery and the power plug and let the computer to rest for some 5 minutes and more and then start it again then the OS see both LAN and Wifi card.
But on Acer Quirky and Wary and Murky has problems while Puppeee and Fluppy works better and Luci works too.
So instead of only concentrating on Puppy 431 I would test as I suggest and see what happens.

Well your ethernet device is definitely listed - 10ec:8139 is the Realtek RTL8139 chip. That's a fairly standard device.kent41 wrote:06:01.0 Class 0200: 10ec:8139 (rev 10)
First check your bios. Sometimes there's a wifi/bluetooth enable function, and maybe there's something relating to LAN-enable?
Also some of these netbooks have an internal dialup modem as an option. If you see some reference in bios to a modem, disable it.
If no success, I suspect a hardware resource allocation problem, which has been a common problem in the past with Intel-based motherboards and onboard/miniPCI devices.
This can sometimes be solved by booting Puppy with the "irqpoll routeirq" boot parameters. If you're booting from CD, once you get to the main boot prompt, type this
Code: Select all

I can't interpret what you showed.
Now a little exercise, as I remembered that 4.3.1 didn't contain the description of these codes.
See if you have a file pci.ids in /usr/share/misc
If yes rename it to pci.ids.bak
Download the attached pci.ids.gz file
Click on it and say yes at the question.
You will get a pci.ids file.
Copy it to /usr/share/misc
Rerun the lspci command.
