Hi Sunseeker2k5, Thanks for all the work you've put into investigating this issue, you are right, the USB standards committee really dropped the ball when it comes to the USB3.x specs. There are some USB 3.1 which do communicate @ 10000M, but it seems that most only communicate @ 5000M. I'm...

@rebelliouswhiz, No, it's definitely an RTL8157, I have multiple 6th Gen mini PC's here in my Proxmox cluster, all of those connect at 5000M (USB.3.0) and then I get the 3.3 Gbits/sec TX/RX and the connection is unstable. On the N150 where it connects at 10000M, it's rock solid. Other points...

Well gentlemen, I think I have got an USB RTL8157 communicating @ 5Gbe as expected here, The client rig is a Intel N150 Proxmox node - Linux pve-4 6.8.12-10-pve - All NVMe NAS Realtek Driver - r8152 - ver. 2.19.2-1 Driver installation with the Debian package installer #dpkg -i...

Just to add my input on this subject. I have the WisPi RTL8157 & a couple of no brand units. Tested on mostly 6th gen Proxmox mini PC's, but I also have an Intel N150 all SSD which is the one I'm really concerned about. I've found the Tx/Rx rate at around 3.6Gbps on the 6th Gen units, but...

@sunseeker2k5, Thanks for putting those instructions together, I'll give it a try tomorrow and let you know how I get on. If it's any help to you, I've found the same Realtek 5Gbe chipset which plugs into a PCIe M.2 A+E key slot so can replace a Wifi Card if that's available to you. Only it's...

Hi sunseeker2k5, Can you write up a step by step guide to get this working, that would be much appreciated. I have already had to re-install my Proxmox after following different instructions which didn't work correctly and this is the 1st time I'm having to build the kernel in Linux. Thank you.

Brilliant !! That solved the problem, edited the vm.conf from another node and now the offending node is able to boot and join the cluster. I was not aware that the cluster vm.conf was stored in that location - so I've definitely learned something new here. Thank you so much mvs, you've saved...

HI all, I have a node which is a member of a cluster, where I've done the stupidest thing and now the nodes is unable to boot. I passthrough the full onboard SATA interface, the one where my pve boot drive is plugged into, now the node fails to boot, even with the Proxmox installation media...

This advise is great, but for a novice like me who does most from the web interface, difficult to follow.

Hi Sterzy, Thanks for the prompt advise. Does that mean i should remove the node pve-2 again, remove the old pve-2 key and then re-add pve-2? DerekG

Hoping someone can advise here. I have a 4 node cluster in my homelab setup - all tiny PC's. I faced issues with pve-2, which happens to be cluster ID:1. So I removed from the cluster, deleted the cluster with run: pvecm delnode pve-2. Rebuilt the node with a fresh Proxmox install and added...

6 month update, just in case anyone is interested. I'm unsure if a change in Proxmox 7.0 has helped or if I've just gained more experience, but I am now able to passthrough the Intel iGPU with display output on the DisplayPort using GVT-d to a macOS VM. I have the physical display out and...

Hi Benjam, I have a similar setup/issue with my Fibre connection, this might help to point you in the right direction. I have a 1GB Fibre connection from a UK community provider. My firewall is a pfsense VM running on Proxmox 7.0 In my case, I experience 2 issues. 1) My ISP has a 'sticky'...

HI generalproxuser, Disclaimer, I'm fairly new to Proxmox and only trying to help where I can. I wouldn't follow the 2nd container guide, although most commands are the same as Ubuntu, certain items (especially around networking). Ubuntu default bridge name is br(-lan) while Proxmox is vmbr0...

Hi khampol, I have the same setup, a pfSense VM as my primary homelab router (well all home router really). If you have the Windows VM installed then Proxmox will have created the default linux Bridge vmbr0, that forms the LAN network/subnet. The bridge vmbr0 should already have the...
