Have to repick LAN adapter after every reboot

Post by hospitalbed »

Hey guys.

I am booting NAS4FREE off of a USB key. Upon initial setup I chose my network adapter from the list, set my static IP, DNS servers, and default gateway. I was able to ping the gateway as well as access my WebGUI from another PC.

Everytime I reboot the machine, I lose connectivity. The system holds my static IP, DNS, and gateway, but I cannot ping any external host or the gateway. I have to re-choose the adapter, setup the same IP, DNS, and gateway and then it will start working.

What am I missing?

not sure if you install full or embeed or boot directly from CD.

if boot from CD, all your changes are only for live sesion, so it's normal that you lose your config when reboot.

config persist on full or embeded install. (only changes doing in the webgui, do not edit directly config files, Nas4Free need to store config in config.xml)

PD: please google a bit about BSD support of your NIC, I not sure , but suspect that is not good on BSD: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=88E8056+BSD
