![]() ![]() The easiest method to gain both is to use gfjardim's excellent script to compile VirtualBox for Unraid ( wiki page) ![]() ![]() To compile the driver, you will need to install the compiler packages and also the kernel headers. If it comes out blank, you're not using r8169, not much use in reading the rest of the post if you're not using itĬompile your own driver / long version : (TL DR version below) PS: I'm mostly from Windows world and a Linux noob, so please correct me for any mistakes.Ĭheck if you're really using the r8169 driver with this command If you have a similar problem and you're using the same network chipset (Realtek RTL8111) then you might want to give this a try Here's how I did it, I hope it can help others who might be in a similar position as I was. ![]() Unfortunately since Unraid is somehow a barebone Slackware, compiling it inside unraid is not a straightforward copy & paste from those threads.Īfter several sleepless nights, I finally managed to compile the driver, I tested it for a couple of weeks and it seems there's no more of those errors in my syslog again even in high network load (many parallel read/write operation on the network) So I googled around and found several threads that said using Realtek's r8168 driver helped them solve the issues. It seems that the driver is mostly fixed in unraid 5 beta, but since I don't like to use a beta in my production box, it's not a good answer for my problem. Then I found out about the Realtek driver issues, how Unraid 4.7 is using the stock r8169 driver, and the possible fix by using r8168 driver. I got curious and googled around for a little bit. Paired it with an i3-550, great motherboard (microATX, total 8 SATA ports onboard, USB3) but kinda lousy onboard Ethernet The mainboard I'm using is MSI H55MA-E43 with the onboard PCI Express LAN 10/100/1000 Fast Ethernet by Realtek 8111E Ethernet Controller.
