Ethernet not working

@JKonopacki said in Ethernet not working:
it takes roughly 15 minutes before It connects
can you try fixing the link settings for the port in question to 10mbit full duplex instead of auto negotiate and see if it makes a difference?
i've only tested duet on unifi switch/ap not their routers so could be different compatability

Bearer,
I assume you mean restricting the port on the router to 10mbit vs auto or on the Duet?Jeff
-
It would have to be on the router/switch

yes, once in a blue moon someone have issues with auto negotiation, but the duet does not have settings for controlling it so it has to be the router/switch if possible. the very long timeout may indicate this is the issue for you so worth a try imho
-
If that doesn't work, do you have another router/switch just to test with?
Where and when was the Duet purchased?
-
OK, I set up an old Mikrotik router and the controller connects instantly. Not ideal with the second router as I will need to create a route to this subnet, but workable. Thanks for the help.

What brand and model of router was it not playing nicely with?
-
Ubiquiti Dream Pro with SFP+ to a Dell 1Gbit switch (plugged into switch). If I plug into a Netgear 10/100Mbit switch connected to the Ubiquiti router it works fine.

Hmm, so I wonder if it's the 10/100 part that is solving it, or if it just doesn't like something else about the ubiquity.

its usually not a question of 10 or 100 mbit, but the negotiation of it. I usually suggest 10 mbit as it will be faster than the duet's SD interface and more reliable if there is a compounding issue with less than ideal cabling.

so the device is connected to the Dell switch or the dream machine? if the switch that is where the compatibility issue would be most likely, and where disabling auto-negotiation might help.
