Wifi+ethernet not working

Reported by: Abraaxnos Owned by: nobody

Component: Drivers/Network/rtl81xx Version: R1/beta4

Description

I’m trying to get the wifi and the network working on a laptop with Haiku on it, but not succeeding.Does anybody has any suggestions how to fix?

The laptop is a Compaq CQ58 from 2013. It contains ethernet hardware type Realtek RTL8010xE and for wifi a Ralink RT3290. Both PCI express. The wifi chipset apparantly doubles for BlueTooth functionality. There is also Ralink BlueTooth info, left that out below. UEFI/secure boot is disabled.

Network (under Preferences->Network shows information on Services (DNS settings FTP server etc) but there is no wifi info or buttons. So the laptop can not connect to any wifi. Plugging in a network cable doesn’t give network connectivity.

AboutSys states as version ‘R1/beta4 (Revisions hrev5678+59) x86_64’. It states under Kernel ‘December 17,2022 at 7:02:22 AM’. The iso used was haiku-r1beta4-x86_64-anyboot.iso.

When reporting this issue in the forum (https://discuss.haiku-os.org/t/wifi-ethernet-not-working/15217/2), the suggestion came op to try a nightly build. I've tried hrev57804. The bug is still there. The info above is for the R1/beta4 release, though.

The suggestion to include hardware-info was also there. Not so familiar with Haiku, I don't know how to do that. syslog info is reported.

Please add the complete system log as a file on the bugtracker, the hardware info can be obtained qith „listdev -v“ in the terminal

in reply to:  description comment:2 by kim1963, 5 months ago

In Terminal

listdev

listusb

listusb -v

PS. hardware info

In Terminal

listimage

PS. kernel modules/drivers info

Have attached output of: listdev listdev -d listimage listusb listusb -v syslog

listdev -v gives: usage: listdev [-d] Displays devices in a user friendly way -d :dumps the tree

PS hardware info gives: bash: PS: command not found

ps hardware info gives empty string

ps kernel modules/drivers info gives empty string

Note: comment above and added files are from a fresh R1/beta4 install. Different install but expected to be identical.

Ah, was an old version. Missed that... I'll report next week on how the latest nightly works. Next days are quite busy. Thanks for the help.

comment:7 by Abraaxnos, 4 months ago

Hi all,

Installed version hrev57881. Still no ethernet connection.

I'm starting to give up on this. If there is something small I can do to track the bug, ok, otherwise I'll just except that I can't run Haiku on that laptop.

Maybe create a Haiku diagnostics tool? Could be a simple bash script outputting (the tail of) syslog and the output of the other commands requested.

Best wishes Abraxnos

Hay Abraxnos,

If the device does not show up in preferences/network then there indeed is *no* driver available. There was no recent work on this, and I doubt there will be before impending beta5.

Does your ethernet controller show up there at least?

If it does not for the moment a workourand would be a usb ethernet adapter, but that is certainly not ideal.

Regards

the ethernet driver failed to init the device:

Hi all,

No, the ethernet controller doesn't show up. The network just shows the services block. I can try the usb dongle then.

Ah, the driver initialisation failed.... that explains.

Anyway, thanks for all your support and hard work.

Best wishes Abraxnos
