Yup, this connection is static, so clearly not that issue. On my post Pi reboot test I started by powering off my computer, then "draining it" by turning off the power supply switch then hitting the power button which gives a click from the speaker. Only then do I turn the power supply back on and again hitting the power button to power up. Interestingly this *did* then find the NIC to work fine. Problem solved?, nope. I then rebooted to see the problem still there. This did allow me to test my new desktop icon to run an ssh over to the Pi (once I see WiFi up). The script (ssh pi 'sudo mii-tool --reset eth0') works fine. So I am done with this, I will just watch to see if something mysteriously fixes it eventually. But I will be happy to test anything else people might want me to try. Thanks all for the help. -- Doug Herr fedoraproject.org@xxxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
