I have 14 rigs working perfectly, but my 3 new ones will not connect to internet on both cable amd wifi. The 3 boards that does not work is 2 b850 and one x870 boards. They work fine with windows.
What am I doing wrong?
those chipsets are newer than the latest build supports out of the box, there are a few options:
-generic usb ethernet adapter for ~$5
-manually update kernel/drivers, though you will need an internet connection, so either run the install on an older system, update everything (install newer kernel, install necessary drivers), then transfer boot drive to new system, or temporarily use a usb ethernet adapter to do the install.
imo usb ethernet are a good thing to have laying around to troubleshoot with so id recommend getting at least one to use here
Hi. thank you for responding.
I have and usb wifi dongle. But I can not get that one to work. The motherboard has wifi built into it. Why do a wifi dongle work but not the onboard wifi of the motherboard?
If I take out the nvme ssd and put it in another rig. Remote into it and update HiveOs to the newest version. How do I know what drivers to install on top of that? The drivers on asus/gigabyte website only seems to be for windows.
Your help is very much apreciated. Thank you
you should be able to ask chatgpt/grok etc to walk you through installing updated drivers for your specific wifi/Ethernet, i would start with updating to the latest non release candidate kernel through mainline, then try the network situation, if still not working you can install updated drivers if available for linux with the help of chatgpt/grok
