    Fedora 24 Workstation problem with network connections

    Use static IP, mask/24 192.168.0.2 gateway - 192.168.0.1
    DNS servers - OpenDNS servers - manual
    Don't pass ping from host to gateway. 192.168.0.2 - 192.168.0.1
    systemctl status; start; enable network - OK
    Ip addr - OK; Ifup ifdown - OK
    systemctl status; start; enable NetworkManager - OK
    But network doesn't work.
    What's wrong? How does check it?

    Just fancy, I don't know what's the matter. I downloaded Fedora Live CD - the net connection wasn't too. Then I decided to check up my network card and run Windows 10. OS updated a little bit and network run well. So, I downloaded into Fedora again. Now network works well. That's very strange situation. I made some settings in Windows OS. I set network doesn't wake up system, but I don't know if soft or hardware problem in Windows OS switch off Ethernet card for Linux OS

    Hi krchat
    You can click on the upper right hand corner of your Desktop (assuming you are using Gnome) and invoke the Wrench/Screwdriver Icon 'left bottom' of menu screen. Once there go to Network Icon and click it. This shows you most of your settings. If you click the little Gear at the 'bottom right' of your menu screen (I assume you are in a Wired Connection). You can make setting changes and check if all things are on within this menu system. Remember to press the Apply button if you make changes. Wireless can be changed this way as well. Cheers...

    Re: Fedora 24 Workstation problem with network connections

    Yes, I did it. The setting was OK, but there wasn't connection.
    The problem was in network card settings. And today it repeated. So, I went to Windows 10 and set my Ethernet card setting - not allowed sleep, and wake up.
    I'd like to know how can I turn my network card in Linix without setting in Windows?

    Re: Fedora 24 Workstation problem with network connections

    That's answer for this problem:

    Realtek no link / WOL problem

    Users with Realtek 8168 8169 8101 8111(C) based NICs (cards / and on-board) may notice a problem where the NIC seems to be disabled on boot and has no Link light. This can usually be found on a dual boot system where Windows is also installed. It seems that using the offical Realtek drivers (dated anything after May 2007) under Windows is the cause. These newer drivers disable the Wake-On-LAN feature by disabling the NIC at Windows shutdown time, where it will remain disabled until the next time Windows boots. You will be able to notice if this problem is affecting you if the Link light remains off until Windows boots up; during Windows shutdown the Link light will switch off. Normal operation should be that the link light is always on as long as the system is on, even during POST. This problem will also affect other operating systems without newer drivers (eg. Live CDs). Here are a few fixes for this problem.

    Re: Fedora 24 Workstation problem with network connections

    but the problem remains: The card doesn't awake. If I
    wakeonlan -p (mac.addr IF)
    I made it
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php..._configuration
    but unfortunately no result.

    Hi krchat
    You might try a another live distro and see if you are having the same problem. You have done everything that could reasonably be done, given the number of potential issues. If the problem is there with another distro then I would expect that the feature is not readily supported under Linux.
    Others here may have a better answer but that is what I would do at this point.

    Yep, I did it and even try to install CentOS 7. The problem is the same. I'm going to try install kmod driver by Elrepo.

    Re: Fedora 24 Workstation problem with network connections

    I wonder if it is caused by certain mainboard manufacturers' implementation of the Realtek Reference design? I have two systems which dual boot windows and linux, both with current Windows drivers created way after 2007. Neither exhibit this issue.

    I know this is of no help to you but it's the most likely cause. Not all Realtek NICs featured on mainboards are manufactured by realtek or integrated the same way. they are licensed products made from a reference design and share common component numbers but that really means nothing unfortunately.

    Re: Fedora 24 Workstation problem with network connections

    This card is Tp-Link NG 3269 - Fork with chipset Realtek. And It doesn't have fresh driver for Linux. At this moment, I'm going to install driver again but in CentOS with kernel 3, not 4 as Fedora 24.

    But this problem is famous. Look at this:

    Users with Realtek 8168 8169 8101 8111(C) based NICs (cards / and on-board) may notice a problem where the NIC seems to be disabled on boot and has no Link light.
