I sold this board. Replacing it would have cost too much time to me. This guy doesn't need gigabit so...
I'm going to Trinity for my NAS

Netgear DGND3700 v1. It has 4 Gigabit ports. The one connected to my desktop PC shows yellow light, but the one of my NAS is amber. It means the router is working but there's a problem with my NAS... I already changed ports and cable but the result is the same.

So, I booted Mint 13 from USB and...

So, what does it mean? Is it a motherboard problem? A router interface problem?

Ok thanks virgafox. What can you suggest to fix my problem? Is there any operation I should do to make the NAS see my Gigabit card?

I notice that my router shows amber light (green light is Gigabit) when the ethernet cable is attached to my NAS. But if I switch the cables of my desktop PC with that of the NAS I get the same result. So I suppose it's not a cable problem.
The funny thing is that the light is amber even if the NAS is turned off!

Thx guys for the tips. I'll try both of them and let you know. Maybe there's a problem with my OMV iso...
Ah, I have to add I encountered the same problem with my previous freeNAS installation, same board.

I tried updating but it fails because of missing firmware rtl18168 etc.. where can I find them?

Thank Dennis for your detailed answer, I'll try the kernel update tomorrow evening. Just wondering why the kernel OMV 0.3 uses is out of date!
Stay tuned

Hello everybody!
I just installed OMV 0.3 on my system and I have a big problem. My ethernet card won't show it can go Gigabit!
I have an ASUS EM351-Deluxe with a Realtek® 8111E PCIe Gigabit LAN controller on.
Well, I can't go for the 1000MBps... The ethtool for my setup shows me:

Settings for eth0:
Supported ports: [ TP MII ]

Where is the problem? I tried to manually set with ethtool -s autoneg on speed 1000 but this block transmission and the light on my router (Netgear DGND3700) and on the board turn off.
I suppose I have to change board :cry: , pleas tell me I don't have to.
F*** you ASUS!
