I am trying to get ethernet working via usb+ethernet adapter Netgear FA101. The adapter is supported by the pegasus driver, which I have compiled into the kernel (2.4.22). After booting kernel reports:
| Code: |
pegasus.c: v0.4.32 (2003/06/06):Pegasus/Pegasus II USB Ethernet driver
usb.c: registered new driver pegasus
|
and about the adapter:
| Code: |
hub.c: new USB device 10:19.0-1, assigned address 3
usb.c: kmalloc IF c772d6e0, numif 1
usb.c: new device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
usb.c: USB device number 3 default language ID 0x409
Manufacturer: NETGEAR
Product: NETGEAR FA101 Adapter
SerialNumber: 0001
emi26_probe start<6>pegasus.c: eth0: NETGEAR FA101
pegasus.c: setup Pegasus II specific registers
usb.c: pegasus driver claimed interface c772d6e0
usb.c: kusbd: /sbin/hotplug add 3
hub.c: port 2, portstatus 100, change 0, 12 Mb/s

I don't understand much about this but it seems ok to me. After booting I get eth0 device. I configure it to connect to my internet gateway:
| Code: |
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:09:5B:03:85:DD
inet addr:10.0.0.101 Bcast:10.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)
|
Then I ping the gateway and don't get any answer. After ping the ifconfig reports that it gets error on every transmitted packet and also it receives some packets. I also can see some activity on the ethernat line, the LEDs blink.
Ping reports: | Code: |
PING 10.0.0.138 (10.0.0.138): 56 octets data
--- 10.0.0.138 ping statistics ---
32 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss |
ifconfig reports after ping: | Code: |
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:09:5B:03:85:DD
inet addr:10.0.0.101 Bcast:10.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0

I don't know what the problem is. May be someone has seen this before?
Any help is appreciated. |
