I use Gigabyte GA-970A-D3, using Debian Live 6.0.6 amd64-rescue I can PING to outside, but when using Proxmox 2.2/2.3 is not able. Hope in the next version Proxmox support Realtek RTL8111 (R8168). I will try manual Realtek driver install and will report again.
Proxmox 2.3 not able to run Realtek RTL8111 (R8168) but Debian Live 6.0.6 is ok

If you fetch and compile this one, remember also the pve-headers package: http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads...d=5&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false
This one works.

I've install latest Realtek drivers r8168-8.035.00.tar.bz2.
Above show r8168 loaded.
dmesg show "eth0: no IPv6 routers present" but I don't think this is the problem.
But still not able to PING outside/gateway.

for anyone who is having problems with this motherboard and network cards with the RTL8111/8168 chip on debian/proxmox, after hours of hair pulling, I finally have a solution. you don't need any special packages besides the pve-firmware for proxmox and firmware-realtek for debian, you just need to do 2 things:1. enable IOMMU on the motherboard configuration2. only on proxmox, enable IOMMU by editing the file /etc/default/grub and adding "amd_iommu=on" to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT variable. then execute update-grub to update the configuration and reboot the system.that's it, now your network card will work, just don't ask me why.

also, my post got all jumbled up, I'm guessing because of the quick reply mode, but I can't post a normal reply nor edit the message because the forum won't load.
