Unfortunately the cross over cable has not solved the issue. It works just the same as a straight cable in this situation. The NIC does say that it supports auto detection, which does seem to be working and not the core of this issue. > >> It would have been helpful to see what the output of ethtool is when > >> it's working, but when it's not working, try the following: > >> > >> ethtool -s enp5s0 mdix on > >> > >> Give it a few seconds, see if it comes on.

An interesting note is that while testing with the cross over cable I ended up with it hardly working at all. The fix was `ethtool -s enp5s0 mdix on`. So it does seem that these commands were doing something after all. I did find a 1 Gig switch that has a low power draw, so I can either use that to fully fix the issue or I can use my "bounce it from the Pi side" icon after each reboot. -- 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
