Hello everyone!

I am very new to Gentoo.
In order to make sure that I followed the correct steps I installed Gentoo three times.
The problem of lost connectivity persists.
I tried the following steps:



ifconfig yields

lo: flags=73<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING> mtu 65536
.
.
.

sit0: flags=128<NOARP> mtu 1480
.
.
.
--------------------------------------

ping -c 3 www.google.com

ping: unknown host www.google.com

--------------------------------------
net-setup enp3s0:

net-setup: command not found

---------------------------------------
ifconfig enp3s0:

error fetching interface information: Device not found

---------------------------------------
wget www.google.com --no-dns-cache -v

Temporary failure in name resolution

----------------------------------------
/etc/conf.d/net

modules="dhcpcd"
config_enp3s0="dhcp"
dns_domain_lo="homenetwork"

----------------------------------------
/etc/resolv.conf

nameserver 192.168.0.1


I won't be able to post results as I am not installing this on a virtual box!
Thanks

Assuming you have a PCI network card, do you see the driver loaded with
Code:
lspci -k

I don't have an additional PCI network card I work on my onboard..
When I ran lspci -k it displayed:

Code:

Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 0c)
             Subsystem: ASUSTek Computer Inc. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller

I followed every step but the system does not ping and ifconfig still displays:

Code:

lo: flags=73<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING> mtu 65536
.
.
.

sit0: flags=128<NOARP> mtu 1480
.
.
.



While lspci -k | grep -A5 Ether displays:
Code:

03:00.0 Ethernet Controller:  Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 0c)
             Subsystem: ASUSTek Computer Inc. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller



Thanks

.ct.pus ... it could be, is CONFIG_R8169 enabled?

Code:
# zgrep CONFIG_R8169 /proc/config.gz

or ...
Code:
# grep CONFIG_R8169 /usr/src/linux-$(uname -r)/.config

I believe the r8169 driver requires firmware, so you would need to install sys-kernel/linux-firmware, if you grep dmesg for 'firmware' it should confirm of the firmware is loaded, or not.

Code:
# dmesg | grep firmware

HTH & best ... khay

I had the same problem also with Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411. For me the solution was ifconfig. It showed that the name was not eth0, but enp5s0. I did not install firmware and now it works fine.
