intermittent ethernet failure
Posted: Fri Nov 13, 2009 3:15 am
I had this problem when my fit-pc2 arrived, but solved it by not rebooting
, i.e.,
leaving the machine on permanently. But now that the weather is
hot, I don't want to do this and am suspending or turning off
between sessions.
When restoring or booting, about 1 in 3 times the ethernet just fails. /etc/init.d/networking restart says OK, but I can't ping anything outside the machine, not
on my local network or the internet.
Any clues? or ways to restart the ethernet hardware without rebooting?
