About This File

Driver for Realtek's RTL810X Fast Ethernet family of NICs which supports these chips:

  • RTL8101E
  • RTL8102E
  • RTL8103E
  • RTL8401E
  • RTL8105E
  • RTL8402
  • RTL8106E
  • RTL8106EUS
  • RTL8107E

Features:

  • Version 2.0.0 requires Sierra (may work on El Capitan too but this is untested). Previous versions of OS X are supported by version 1.0.0.
  • 64 bit architecture only.
  • Support for multisegment packets relieving the network stack of unnecessary copy operations when assembling packets for transmission.
  • No-copy receive and transmit. Only small packets are copied on reception because creating a copy is more efficient than allocating a new buffer.
  • TCP, UDP and IPv4 checksum offload (receive and transmit).
  • TCP segmentation offload under IPv4.
  • Support for TCP/IPv6 and UDP/IPv6 checksum offload.
  • Supports Wake on LAN.
  • Support for Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) which can be disabled by setting enableEEE to NO in the drivers Info.plist without rebuild. The default is YES.
  • The driver is published under GPLv2.

Not working in macOS Sierra 10.12.6 

kxld[com.insanelymac.RealtekRTL8100]: The super class vtable 'vtable for IOEthernetController' for vtable 'vtable for RTL8100' is out of date. Make sure your kext has been built against the correct headers.

Link failed (error code 5).

Prelink failed for com.insanelymac.RealtekRTL8100; omitting from prelinked kernel.
