    Had a Raspberry Pi next to me, so that’s what I used.

    You mean you connected the USB NIC to the raspberry?! Though this is a good idea to get the information it’s not the same as booting a linux live system on the surface to see if it works properly. My fault I didn’t explicitely say that I wanted to test this as well - see if a linux live system booting on that surface device can bring up the NIC properly.

    So back to the pictures you posted. Thanks for that! To me it looks as if you’ve connected two differnet USB NICs at the same time. Both are detected but getting no link. Where they hooked up to the network? Do both USB NICs fail with FOG at the very same step? I’d guess it’s better to focus on one of the NICs to not mix things up too much.

    Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

      There was only one USB NIC attached to the Raspberry Pi in these pictures. It was not connected to the internet.

      I’ll have to download a live cd before I can test on the surface.

        Here is the output from the Surface device running Ubuntu 16.04 live CD. The Microsoft model 1821 dongle is being used to connect to the Internet.

        Dongle is going through a powered USB hub, due to the Surface only having 1 USB port.

          I just purchased the Surface dongle model 1663. I will try again with that and get back with the results.

            @Avaryan Ok, possibly we just need to add this model’s USB ID to the kernel source code.

            @Tom-Elliott Would you please add ID 045e:0927 to drivers/net/usb/r8152.c. With a bit of luck this will make it work.

            Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

              Was this done? I’d be glad to test again. I only have one Surface device left and not sure how much longer I’ll have access to it.

                I was able to get the Surface Pro 4 to register with the 1663 Model dongle. I can test the new version after the driver has been added.

                Thank you for all the help and quick response.

                  @avaryan Kernel is being build right now. Will update this post in an hour when it’s done and uploaded.

                  Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                    Kernel 4.13.4 has been updated to include the 0927 identifier. Please update to working branch which will enforce your kernels to update to the latest on our site. Or you can do:

                    wget -O /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/bzImage https://fogproject.org/kernels/bzImage
                    wget -O /var/www/fog/service/ipxe/bzImage32 https://fogproject.org/kernels/bzImage32
                    

                    Then test and let us know if it’s working for you please?

                    Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

                      @tom-elliott I made the changes using the two wget’s you provided.

                      Test server is currently on 1.5.0-RC-9, SVN 6080.

                      It went further than before, but though up an error screen. I took pictures. Will attach soon.

                        Pulled latest working branch. Took me down to Version 65, SVN 6079. Re-tested. Same results.

                          @Avaryan Well it looks like this got us past the DHCP issue of the inital posting. So adding that ID to the kernel source code does seem to help.

                          Please check your apache error log right after you see this error on screen. See my signature on where to find the log on your FOG server.

                          Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)
