This is the Linux device driver released for RealTek RTL8101E, RTL8102E(L) and RTL8103E(L), the Fast Ethernet controller with PCI-Express interface.

- kernel source tree (supported Linux kernel 2.6.x and 2.4.x)

- For linux kernel 2.4.x, this driver supports linux kernel 2.4.20 and latter.

- compiler/binutils for kernel compilation

Check whether the built-in driver, r8169.ko (or r8169.o for kernel 2.4.x), is installed.

# lsmod | grep r8169

If it is installed, please remove it.

# rmmod r8169

note: If the built-in driver cannot removed by rmmod, please edit /etc/modprobe.conf and comment 'alias eth0 r8169'. Then, remmove it again or reboot your computer.

Unpack the tarball :

# tar vjxf r8101-1.aaa.bb.tar.bz2

Change to the directory:

# cd r8101-1.aaa.bb

If you are running the target kernel, then you should be able to do :

# make clean modules (as root or with sudo)

# make install

# depmod -a

# insmod ./src/r8101.ko (or r8101.o for kernel 2.4.x)

You can check whether the driver is loaded by using following commands.

# lsmod | grep r8101

# ifconfig -a

If there is a device name, ethX, shown on the monitor, the linux

driver is loaded. Then, you can use the following command to activate

the ethX.

# ifconfig ethX

,where X=0,1,2,...

1. Set manually

a. Set the IP address of your machine.

# ifconfig ethX "the IP address of your machine"

b. Set the IP address of DNS.

Insert the following configuration in /etc/resolv.conf.

nameserver "the IP address of DNS"

c. Set the IP address of gateway.

# route add default gw "the IP address of gateway"

2. Set by doing configurations in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts

/ifcfg-ethX for Redhat and Fedora, or /etc/sysconfig/network

/ifcfg-ethX for SuSE. There are two examples to set network

configurations.

a. Fixed IP address:

DEVICE=eth0

BOOTPROTO=static

ONBOOT=yes

TYPE=ethernet

NETMASK=255.255.255.0

IPADDR=192.168.1.1

GATEWAY=192.168.1.254

BROADCAST=192.168.1.255

b. DHCP:

DEVICE=eth0

BOOTPROTO=dhcp

ONBOOT=yes

There are two ways to modify the MAC address of the NIC.

1. Use ifconfig:

# ifconfig ethX hw ether YY:YY:YY:YY:YY:YY

,where X is the device number assigned by Linux kernel, and

YY:YY:YY:YY:YY:YY is the MAC address assigned by the user.

2. Use ip:

# ip link set ethX address YY:YY:YY:YY:YY:YY

,where X is the device number assigned by Linux kernel, and

YY:YY:YY:YY:YY:YY is the MAC address assigned by the user.

1. Force the link status when insert the driver.

If the user is in the path ~/r8101, the link status can be forced

to one of the 4 modes as following command.

# insmod ./src/r8101.ko speed=SPEED_MODE duplex=DUPLEX_MODE autoneg=NWAY_OPTION

,where

SPEED_MODE = 100 for 100Mbps

= 10 for 10Mbps

DUPLEX_MODE = 0 for half-duplex

= 1 for full-duplex

NWAY_OPTION = 0 for auto-negotiation off (true force)

= 1 for auto-negotiation on (nway force)

For example:

# insmod ./src/r8101.ko speed=100 duplex=0 autoneg=1

will force PHY to operate in 100Mpbs Half-duplex(nway force).

2. Force the link status by using ethtool.

a. Insert the driver first.

b. Make sure that ethtool exists in /sbin.

c. Force the link status as the following command.

# ethtool -s ethX speed SPEED_MODE duplex DUPLEX_MODE autoneg NWAY_OPTION

,where

SPEED_MODE = 100 for 100Mbps

= 10 for 10Mbps

DUPLEX_MODE = half for half-duplex

= full for full-duplex

NWAY_OPTION = off for auto-negotiation off (true force)

= on for auto-negotiation on (nway force)

For example:

# ethtool -s eth0 speed 100 duplex full autoneg on

will force PHY to operate in 100Mpbs Full-duplex(nway force).

RTL8101E, RTL8102E and RTL8103E do not support Jumbo Frame.
