i am back to having no network connection
It was working fine lastnight, i watched 3 hours of media through it
shut it off went to bed
got up, turned it on... not working
im getting pretty sick of this... yet i LOVE how fast XBMCbuntu loads on this machine (15 seconds to fully boot into the program)
hopefully someone can help me fix this in the next couple hours or else im going back to windows
parts of windows are annoying but atleast it works



15 min and 7 reboots later and its working again
this is sketchy guys anyone know what going on and how i can fix it

just a thought, have you tried a cold boot?

no idea what that is

[joethefox]

means the start-up of a computer from a off state: shutdown the computer and then power-off the PSU, wait a 5-10 seconds and then power on again.

yes i did that multiple times
i seems to be random
sometimes it forms a connection, sometimes it doesnt

Right in the middle of a video it started freezing up
i exit the video and go back in and its fine for a few sends then did it again
i shut the HTPC off, turned it back on
bam, cant connect again

[joethefox]

understood. Let's see if there is something strange, can you post the output of this command?

Code:

$ sudo ethtool eth0

[RaveApex]

im going back to windows 7
thanx anyways
