Looking for USB NIC that is known to work with PXE/Fog
-
I tried searching the forums but couldn’t find one. I currently have a StarTech USB2100S2 REV B for a Dell XPS 13 (L321X) that is not working. Has anyone else had any luck with other makes/models?
-
I have no problems rehosting that, but all of the kernel’s I’ve been building have the “ALLNET” identifier by default now.
Just wanted to add clarity for you all.
-
Ummmm
I’m right here!
-
I emailed him, will see if he will re host it
-
You could also try Tom’s current kernel: [url]https://mastacontrola.com/downloads.html[/url] or shoot him an email (at the bottom of his website) to see if he’ll re-host it.

It’s 7MB and I can’t upload it to the forum. -

I was referring to my comment being very delayed,
I don’t mean to be resentful :oops: LOL!

You’re welcome, if not slightly delayed, I’m glad to be of assistance however necessary.

Thanks Tom! This worked for a [URL=‘http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833114057&Tpk=usb21000s2’]StarTech USB 2.0 to Gigabit Ethernet NIC Network Adapter[/URL]!

Try this kernel:
[URL=‘https://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImageALLNET’]https://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/[COLOR=#000000]bzImageALLNET[/COLOR][/URL]
[COLOR=#000000]It has all possible network drivers from USB and Network Drivers.[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000]Thank you,[/COLOR]

I’m building a kernel will all networking devices enabled, including usb devices. I’ll post a link for it when it’s finished.
Thank you,
-
So it starts to try to do FOG stuff, but then fails out because the kernel has no driver for the NIC? What kind of driver does it require?
I’ll try to build a kernel for you that has it built in.
-
It PXE boots to the menu, but any option from the menu doesn’t load a driver for it. I’ve tried the latest 5 kernels to no avail.
-
How do you mean it’s not working? Does using it get you to the PXE menu, or is it after that that FOG Cannot communicate with the network?
