I'm running into issues building a new kernel module in support of the I219-V.

Initially built with driver v3.3.3 against kernel 3.0.13-0.27-default. The module (e1000e.ko) loaded without issue, but the environment lacked USB support for the target devices (no mouse/keyboard).

I rebuilt with driver v3.3.3 against kernel 3.0.76-0.11-default. Mouse/keyboard work now, but the e1000e module does not load. It's being loaded by insmod, which reports:

     insmod: error inserting '/modules/e1000e_3.3.3.ko' : -1 Unknown symbol in module

I also tried with driver v3.2.7.1 against the same kernel (3.0.76-0.11-default) -- same behaviour.

Is there a trick to building the e1000e module against the (slightly) newer 3.0 kernel?

Thanks!

Hi,

Any one can tell me if CT desktop adapter support teaming?

Thanks,

Hello there,

Where can i find info for teaming on Intel NIC?

thanks,

Hello,

Any one can point me to the site to download windows 2012 OS driver for XL710-qda1? Thanks.

where can i find i350-t2 specs?

Hello, there.

This morning I upgraded my fully functionnal Windows 8.1 Enterprise installation to Windows 10 Technical Preview. Before that, I downloaded the Intel Network Adapter Driver from this website, version 20.1, for Windows 10 64 bits. After the driver installation, I had the VLANs tab in the network card properties. However, i'm unable to create a VLAN. The network card is automatically disabled then I receive an error message saying this (translated from french):

One or more vlans could not be created. Please check the adapter status and try again.

The window freezes and I have to force-close it. 802.1 option is of course enabled in the Advanced options tab. The event viewer always shows the same error when I try to create a VLAN:

I already tried to uninstall all the packages and drivers related to the network card. I deleted fantom network cards then cleaned up the registry. I tried to set some compatibility options to the given executable file, with no success. I tried to reinstall the driver with Drivers Signature disabled, tried to disable IPv4/IPv6 from the network card before trying to add a VLAN... I tried everything I found on Google.

Could someone help me, please?

On my servers on Windows 2012 R2, I have a x710 with random disconnection with two scenarios.

1- During the windows startup, I see many error in the event viewer related to disconnections .

2- Going to the properties of the drivers, cause the nic to disconnect.

I have all lastest drivers and firmware. On the same server we have Mellanox Connectx 4 without any of these issues.

hi, i would like to report that the new intel nic drivers version 19.3 that just released recently has huge 6000+ dpc latency spike once in a few secs.

my specs

Intel(R) 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection

windows 7 SP1 32bit + lastest windows update

i downgrade to intel nic drivers previous version 19.1 and the problem is just gone.

Hi,

I am having a trouble with my PC. I am not able to connect with Internet after I restarted my computer to finish some updates for Windows10. I found there is problem with ethernet controller, the "Intel(R) Ethernet Connection I217-LM" cannot be updated. I download drivers from the Intel website Download Network Adapter Driver for Windows® 10 and tried to install the network drivers on my PC, but got the error "Cannot install drivers. No Intel(R) Adapters are present in this computer."

The network troubleshoot is as follows

please help me with this problem, I really appreciate it

I have a new computer and after being away from the computer for a while (a few hours), the network card lost it's IP address. The computer was not sleeping or hibernated. I restored the connection by opening a command prompt, running ipconfig/release, then ipconfig/renew. Here are some specs:

OS - Windows 7

Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-X99-UD3P with on-board Intel LAN NIC

Driver - Intel Ethernet Connection I218-V (Version 12.15.22.3 dated 11/24/2015)

What I want to know is:

A. Am I using the correct driver?

B. If so, is there any settings I can change to correct this issue?

Hi there. How to remove "iSCSI remote boot" screen on system startup?

Hi everyone,

a lot of similar problems could be found accross forums and internet regarding Intel(R) Ethernet Connection I218-LM or similar network cards having problem connectiong to a gigabit network. Max speed of connections is 100Mbps.

I will explain problem in details and hopefully Intel personnel will help us

system/network

Lenovo ThinkPad T440s

Intel(R) Ethernet Connection I218-LM

Drivers: latest (tried Intel and Lenovo drivers)

Cabling: Cat5e (all cables)

Switch: TPLink TL-SG1024

To eliminate all "external" problems it is not due bad cables nor switch nor any other variables.

Connecting other notebook to same RJ45 outlet with same cable normally gives 1Gbps (different network card producer). So we came to conclusion it has to be the problem with I218-LM.

Behavior:

-When you connect cable to RJ45 at the nootebook lan card obviously trying to negotiate 1Gbps speed what takes around 30-60sec when lan icon shows no connection. After that, connection has been estanblished but at the speed of 100Mbps.

-Forcing properties (speed&duplex) from auto negotiate to 1Gbps leads to no connection at all after cable has been connected to RJ45 at the notebook.

-Forcing properties (speed&duplex) from auto negotiate to 100Mbps leads to instant connection after cable has been connected to RJ45 at the notebook.

For some reasong 1Gbps speed can not be achieved and I kindly ask Intel personnel so investigate the problem. A lot of same issue has been around with same lan card or similar ones so I believe a lot of customers will have benefit of solving this issue.

Thanks in advanced

The 40Gb modes can no longer be selected using the qcu64e utility since the firmware upgrade from 4.42 to 5.02. Only 4x10 and 2x2x10 options are offered but the XL710-QDA2 card is QSFP+ capable.

We are using the i40e driver 1.4.25 on Redhat 6: 2.6.32-573.18.1.el6.x86_64 kernel

# ethtool -i eth4

It looks like there is currently no way to downgrade the firmware, which make the cards that are now stuck in 4x10 unusable for us.

Attached please find two patches for the igb and ixdbe drivers that allow a guest instance to set the MAC address.

To enable such features, you need to run this on the host:

                  ip link set dev <interface_name>  vf  < index>    spoofchk off

The igb patch is based on version 5.3.3.5.

The ixgbe patch is based on redhat el7 3.10.0.-327.4.5.el7 kernel.  (i.e. linux-3.10.0-327.4.5.el7.x86_64/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe)

Let me know if that make sense?

Hi Intel Folks I have a very strange Problem:

I got a Supermicro X9SRH-7TF Mainboard which comes with 2 Onboard 10GBe Ports through an X540-T2 Chipset. For about a year I had those two ports connected to a 1GBe Switch and everything was just fine. I got another Server which I recently added a 10GBe X540-T2 PCIe Card. I initially only connected the Servers physically without assigning IP Addresses within their Windows Server 2012 R2 OS. Then I was away for a week or something, came back and both 10 GBe Onboard Ports first showed up having trouble (Error Code 43) until after some trying to reapply the Intel PRO Driver Package (v18.7) they degraded to unknown Communication Device in the device Manager.

This is all I have from the Windows Event Logs: Log Name: System Source: Microsoft-Windows-UserPnp Date: - Pastebin.com

The Server with the PCIe 10GBe Card shows as connectivity "Disconnected" on the 10GBe Ports since the first server decided to not like those 2 Onboard Ports anymore.

This also is reproducable: In the meantime I've exchanged the Mainboard since I thought those onboard ports are screwed up but it's the same with the new Mainboard. I'm not sure where to look for this Problem (BIOS, Drivers, something else?) so I hope for your help asides my request towards SuperMicro.

Thanks

Hello,

Can someone point me in the right direction or a KB article or explain what is the different between the different Intel Boot Agents.

Recently I've been seeing the following:

CL

GE

FE

Is there a matrix that explains the differences?

Or could be be product developments, FE became GE which became CL  (or something like that)

Thanks

I was looking at this thread http://communities.intel.com/message/110204 to force 100mb/s full duplex on an HP Z200 running XP  with Intel 82578DM Card

Following the steps identified by Mark H from Intel http://communities.intel.com/message/86858#86858 I can view the settings but I can't see anything to change the speedImage may be NSFW.

Can anyone help ? - thanks

Hello,

after the update to Windows 10 (x64, Build 10240) the creation of a teaming group (static or IEEE802.3ad) with a I211+I217-V NIC fails.

Drivers have been upgraded to the latest version available and multiple reinstallations with reboots din't help either. Whenever the group creation wizzard is used and a groupname (several tried), the adapters and LACP have been selected, a Windows pop-up appears to tell me group creation has failed.

However the Windows Device Manager shows a newly created "Intel Advanced Network Services Virtual Adapter", so some kind of configuration seems to get done.

Using Windows 7 SP1 x64 the exact same setup worked flawlessly for months, so Win10/the driver are the likely culprit.

Is anyone experiencing similar problems and/or is this a known bug? Feedback on this issue is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,

Famaku

Hi all,

I cannot figure out why I cannot enable SR-IOV on Intel Xeon-D 1541's X552 10gbe NIC, it must be the intel's latest ixgbe driver issue because on the same SoC board, the Intel i350 1gbe NIC's sr-iov can be enabled.

Hi everyone,

We purchased a few DELL Optiplex 9020s that came with an Intel Ethernet Connection I217-LM ethernet controller, and I've been unable to find the correct WinPE x64 drivers for this adapter.

From the Download Center I found what I thought were the correct drivers. In the EXE, I found some WinPE drivers, but apparently these aren't it as I'm not able to connect to my network when I boot up using WinPE.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to get the correct drivers please?

Thanks!
