Mieze Posted August 15, 2014 Author Share Posted August 15, 2014 Just saw that, attached to the previous post. Don't try it because it is just a debug built in order to track down an issue another user reported. The same applies to the attached kext. @senoirchippy: the attached one is for you. Same procedure as last time. Mieze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighMans Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Will redo with the attached kext. Going to take a bit, need to do other things on OSX too. (On windows currently) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daxuexinsheng Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Hi, Mieze, could you add support for AR8132? Just because ALXEthernet has no update for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mieze Posted August 16, 2014 Author Share Posted August 16, 2014 I have posted a new development release, version 1.0.0d6, which is the first one including a release and debug build as the driver is already working stable for days on my machine. As always, the source code is included too. Mieze 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mieze Posted August 18, 2014 Author Share Posted August 18, 2014 I posted version 1.0.0d7, in which WoL support has been fixed, a few moments ago. Mieze 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excel233 Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Mieze... it's fantastic. My Killer E2200 is now working on OsX in my office where it can play with dozens of AFP and SMB servers. it's auto negotiating in 1000bast-T full-duplex, which the old driver i had couldn't do, and doesn't crash when transferring multiple large files in any way. it's just working perfectly. I love you ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Pierce Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Came here just to say thank you. I have an AR8171, which the ALXEthernet driver is supposed to work with. On my setup (Clover UEFI), I would get random reboots that didn't produce any logs or kernel panics. My system would just reboot at what seemed like random. I wouldn't have any indication in my logs as to what was happening, just that it SEEMED to happen more often when my network was under high load (VPN+Torrent). I switched to your kext yesterday, and I torrented the {censored} out of the day without a single reboot. Hats off to you, sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excel233 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Hey Mieze, would it be possible to enable Flow control with this driver ? actually it's 1000Base-T, full duplex, no flow control. Just asking ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-an-W Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I see this in the System.log... Ethernet [AtherosE2200]: Link up on en0, 1-Gigabit, Full-duplex, Rx/Tx flow-control Is that no good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mieze Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 (edited) Hey Mieze, would it be possible to enable Flow control with this driver ? actually it's 1000Base-T, full duplex, no flow control. Flow control is supported, the NIC is configured to advertise flow control support, but it doesn't force it. Well, I might add an option when I find some time but there is nothing wrong with it when auto-negotiation results in a connection without FC.

D-an-W Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Mieze, I was just asking Excel233 if the fact it mentioned flow-control in the log was enough "proof" it was supported? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mieze Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 @D-an-W: Sorry, but being in a hurry I missed the point that it was related to Excel233's post so that I was a little bit confused about the meaning. Mieze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrBones Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Thanks Mieze, working fine here in a GA H87N with the AR8161, even with WOL and WOD which Shailuas 1.0.2 driver did not manage! Thank You for finally letting my File Server sleep and wake Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Excel233 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 D-an-W, sorry for the late reply, i'll check this asap. AFAIK, i didn't seen any way to force FlowControl in advanced network prefs (like Mieze said obviously) It does not seems to impact transfer performance at Gigabit speed. My office made some tests with 10G+ ethernets (Pcie cards, not in this hackintosh) and no-flow control was responsible of bad performances while downloading. Anyway, i'll paste here my system log asap like i said. Thanks ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
