MadInt Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Hi, small update - I'm sure that latency issue is fixed now. So to get good speed and latency you need to set network media properties to 100 Mbit full-duplex operation (in most cases).

NoSTaBoNN Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I am currently working with 100BaseTX half-duplex, how do i get it in full-duplex? further the driver works like before.. maybe a bit faster. But I'm not noticing it. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/40851-attansic-l1-driver-project/page/12/#findComment-704086 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadInt Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I am currently working with 100BaseTX half-duplex,how do i get it in full-duplex? There must be appropriate option in ethernet adapter settings. Another way is do it throught terminal, by entering sudo ifconfig en0 media 100BaseTX mediaopt full-duplex Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/40851-attansic-l1-driver-project/page/12/#findComment-704098 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaemonES Posted April 11, 2008 Author Share Posted April 11, 2008 Try to sudo rm -R /System/Library/Extensions/AttansicL1Ethernet.kext sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions sudo reboot It seems someone included unworkable version of driver to DVD.

eberts Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Congratulations DaemonEs and MadInt. Nice work. I hardly dare to ask about the Attansic L2... I tried the L1: I get an active link with mac-address. I can also ping itself but I don't get through to the router. Any chance for us Attansic L2 users? DaemonES? MadInt?

antaholics Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 I got it to work!! yay!! I wasn't really sure how to use the install .sh files though, so I just used kexthelper. Can anyone confirm if the release version works? I am using the debug version right now. Thanks everyone for the development and efforts!!

emulatorb Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Indeed. kexthelper and a couple of cable in // out did the trick form me. the extension kept diappearing from the ext folder so made a copy to the desktop and installed it from there. thx again.

braveskunk Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 hey guys! been following this thread a long time now. i'm very happy that somebody finally got it to work. it works on my mobo as well but i cannot say it's working good. the problem is with the speed and autonegotiation. when i install the kext(no matter: debug, release or via kext helper) it install and loads allright:) then i have to select(manually) speed and duplex mode. if i select 10 or 100mbit and half or full duplex(no matter what combination) it gets the right ip and all the configuration from dhcp but the speed is about 1kb/s in/out and barely loads the top of web pages. i can ping servers, adium works, so i guess the only thing whats wrong is something with the speed configuration thus it cannot load pages becouse of 1kb/s transfer. i wanted to change/reconfigure something in the script itself but just don't know excacly what is resposible for what. when i change the speed to 1000mbit it says its manually configured(by osx i guess...) address from 169.x.x.x or 10.39.x.x and cannot connect to anything. below, my ifconfig dump: lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 gif0: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1280 stf0: flags=0<> mtu 1280 en0: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::200:1cff:fec9:df81%en0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x4 inet 192.168.0.8 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255 ether 00:00:1c:c9:df:81 media: autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex,flow-control>) status: active supported media: autoselect 100baseTX <full-duplex> 100baseTX <full-duplex,flow-control> 100baseTX <hw-loopback> 100baseTX <half-duplex> 10baseT/UTP <full-duplex> 10baseT/UTP <full-duplex,flow-control> 10baseT/UTP <hw-loopback> 10baseT/UTP <half-duplex> none en3: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::218:f3ff:fe74:4f14%en3 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5 inet 192.168.0.107 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255 ether 00:18:f3:74:4f:14 media: 100baseTX <full-duplex> status: active supported media: autoselect 10baseT/UTP <half-duplex> 10baseT/UTP <full-duplex> 100baseTX <half-duplex> 100baseTX <full-duplex> 1000baseT <half-duplex> 1000baseT <full-duplex> en1: flags=8963<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::21c:42ff:fe00:0%en1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x6 inet 10.37.129.2 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.37.129.255 ether 00:1c:42:00:00:00 media: autoselect status: active supported media: autoselect en2: flags=8963<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::21c:42ff:fe00:1%en2 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x7 inet 10.211.55.2 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.211.55.255 ether 00:1c:42:00:00:01 media: autoselect status: active supported media: autoselect i have 2 parallels desktop interfaces and 2 from my se k800i. the 2 "real" interfaces are en0(realtek) and en3(l1). if anyone get a clue how to speedup my connection i would be happy:) anyway, thanks for all ur help and work to get this done:) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/40851-attansic-l1-driver-project/page/12/#findComment-706171 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest undefined Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 braveskunk - try setting it to 100 and full-duplex. i had lack of performance at the beginning, but after about 10 minutes it was all fine! also check your dns servers, if adium seems to work and webistes dont.

braveskunk Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 no no ur missing the point a bit:) all types of connections work but its just so slow. thats the problem, will give it a try for longer,and how is it after restart? u have to wait 10 minutes again? or its just a one time problem?

emulatorb Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 since I set it to 100 my connection is stable from the first minute after login. I get my full broadband (around 1.6 MB) on a P5KC. On my setup, full duplex or half duplex did not make any difference.

braveskunk Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 i changed it to 100 half/full still no any better after waitng almost an hour. tried pluggin in/out few times. will try to play with my router now Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/40851-attansic-l1-driver-project/page/12/#findComment-706340 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest undefined Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 no, it was just one time problem. did you check dns server/s? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/40851-attansic-l1-driver-project/page/12/#findComment-706342 Share on other sites More sharing options...
braveskunk Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 as i said before. it can connect and ping to the (www)servers(so both dns works), safari sees the page, starting to display it and then stuck on loading page. checked on istat and the speeds are up to 5kb/s down, and 1kb/up. the thing is the connection itself is so slow that osx cant download all the data:/ strange Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/40851-attansic-l1-driver-project/page/12/#findComment-706347 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadInt Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 I think i've done most of work with link autosensing. Now OS can detect when you plug and unplug cable and show appropriate link status, speed and duplex. Still some problems with gigabit, but i'm working on it. Please try this WITHOUT manual link setting (keep with "auto" configuration in ethernet card properties).

NoSTaBoNN Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 It detects the cable.. and it detects the correct speed and duplex. But i think it handles it wrong.

braveskunk Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 yeah, that might be it. the same with mine. detects connection but somehow its just sloooow:P Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/40851-attansic-l1-driver-project/page/12/#findComment-706468 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSTaBoNN Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 OK.. I fixed it. Now it auto detects and sets the correct speed & duplex. Someone might want to check the code.. but it works What i have done is added a boolean called autoMediaType to the atl1Adapter... Which is set to true if autoselect. And in atl1GetAndUpdateLinkStatus i added this if(atl1Adapter_.autoMediaType) { DbgPrint("Media is autoconfigured!"); atl1Hw_.media_type = currentMediumIndex; setCurrentMedium(mediumTable[currentMediumIndex]); } EDIT: It could be i modified the debug at some place to make sure i had a new kext... had some problems with that at first AttansicL1Ethernet.zip Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/40851-attansic-l1-driver-project/page/12/#findComment-706525 Share on other sites More sharing options...
