Cant find interfaces
-
Hey all,
Just when i thought the rest would go smoothly now it cant find my network ports any more.
I had this running with pfsense before, then when i moved i tried a different firewall software, and now have decided to switch back. I can see the lights on the port when i plug in a Ethernet cable but it just cant find here.my hardware: https://qotom.net/product/35.html

pfSense is not Linux, those commands won't work.
It should show the network cards detected in the boot log. They should also appear as pci devices if you run:
pciconf -lv

Hi Steve,
Apparently that command does not exist:

You are trying to enter it at the boot loader and not in the OS. Enter
boot -s
to boot to single user mode from there and then try runningpciconf -lv
.Also you can attach images directly here. Going through Mega for one photo at a time is.... painful!

Ah yes, i was entering at boot,
Yes mega is painful but when i try to upload here there is a 2mb limit, so i reduce the image to below 2mb(made it 1.87mb) and get the error, "request entity too large", so i use my mega so i can at least show you the images
Here are the results:

Make that
pciconf -l
The info searched for, like :
em3@pci0:3:3:1: class=0x020000 card=0x117a8086 chip=0x10798086 rev=0x03 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Intel Corporation' device = '82546GB Gigabit Ethernet Controller' class = network subclass = ethernet
is probably there, but you're not fast enough taking the photo.
This is what you are looking for :
class = network subclass = ethernet
You'll be looking for (my five nics) :
em0@pci0:3:2:0: class=0x020000 card=0x00db0e11 chip=0x10108086 rev=0x03 hdr=0x00 em1@pci0:3:2:1: class=0x020000 card=0x00db0e11 chip=0x10108086 rev=0x03 hdr=0x00 em2@pci0:3:3:0: class=0x020000 card=0x117a8086 chip=0x10798086 rev=0x03 hdr=0x00 em3@pci0:3:3:1: class=0x020000 card=0x117a8086 chip=0x10798086 rev=0x03 hdr=0x00 fxp0@pci0:3:8:0: class=0x020000 card=0x01ab1028 chip=0x27dc8086 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00

Hello Steve,
I ran the pciconf -l and i can see 4 devices call pcib1, i assume they would be my 4 network ports:
https://mega.nz/#!no41jawK!zMmYCnJsRwwJF1-RtqWTGIocn76hL3HKP75ANLplZbs -
chip=72708086 it's the intel
none1@ is Atom Processor E3800 Series SMBus Controller
picb1@ Atom Processor E3800 Series PCI Express Root Port 1
pcib2@ Atom Processor E3800 Series PCI Express Root Port 2
pcib3@ Atom Processor E3800 Series PCI Express Root Port 3
pcib4@ Atom Processor E3800 Series PCI Express Root Port 4
none0@ Atom Processor Z36xxx/Z37xxx Series Trusted Execution Enginethere isn't any network card here
maybe check your bios for some related settings -
Uh oh,that's not good, I hope they are not broken,I'll poke around the bios, thanks
-
Yeah, they are not showing as PCIe devices. Make sure they are enabled in the BIOS. That's about the only thing that could prevent them appearing there.
Compared to a similar system that list is very short. You may have other things missing.Steve

Well had a poke around could not see anything that could of helped, so i just loaded the default settings and now it works, i have no idea what settings it could be but i am not going to touch it, thanks for your help guys!
