XerSonik Posted April 5, 2020 Share #508 Posted April 5, 2020 (edited) @IG-88 Is this my firmware and bios? https://docs.broadcom.com/docs/12350504 Or everything is bad and there is no firmware https://www.supermicro.com/support/faqs/faq.cfm?faq=19631 Edited April 5, 2020 by XerSonik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IG-88 Posted April 5, 2020 Author Share #509 Posted April 5, 2020 the broadcom/lsi link looks like it would be the right thing for the 2108 chip but i can't say if its possible to use with this supermicro controller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cryser7 Posted April 7, 2020 Share #515 Posted April 7, 2020 Hello, I have a Problem with my following Build: Mainboard: Asrock J3455 ITX Motherboard RAM: 4 GB RAM - 1 Slot used HDD: 10 TB WD White (from an External WD Case) Onboard NIC: Disabled in BIOS (not showing up in DSM 6.2.2). Current NIC: USB 3.0 to Ethernet NIC Chip: ASIX AX 88179 Link to NIC: Amazon USB 3.0 Adapter - UGREEN DSM Version: DSM 6.2.2-24922 Update 5 Loader: 1.04b - DS918 with "Driver extension jun 1.03b/1.04b for DSM6.2.2 for 3615xs / 3617xs / 918+" To my problem: Everything is working great! Except one thing. Suddenly my NAS is losing Internet Connection. I can not access the NAS anymore. Also it completely disappers on the network. I checked that in my router (Speedport Hybrid). I have no other possibility than shut down the power and restart the NAS. That is not nice for the HDD. I have uploaded 2 Screenshots from the Protokoll Center. I hope you have an idea what the problem is. Should i Use another Driver extension or another External NIC (Pcie? or USB?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richv31 Posted April 7, 2020 Share #516 Posted April 7, 2020 What version of the J3455 board do you have? With my J3455B-ITX, 1.04b does not work well, machine is super slow, network file transfers are below 50MB/s and USB3 port speed is also terrible (20MB/sec). For that board, running 1.03 with the extra.lzma (to get the network working) is much better - super smooth and fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cryser7 Posted April 7, 2020 Share #517 Posted April 7, 2020 I have the J3455-ITX Board. That is interesting. On my Board everything is smooth and fast. With the USB 3 Ethernet adapter I am getting full transfer speeds of 100 mb/s. Only the sudden lose of internet connection is the problem.

bluepr0 Posted April 8, 2020 Share #519 Posted April 8, 2020 Hello, where I can find a step by step tutorial on how to use these driver extensions? I'm reading the initial post but I'm totally lost on how to use them. Thanks a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mosaati Posted April 8, 2020 Share #520 Posted April 8, 2020 (edited) Hope this helps. If I mention a tool that you don't have l, just Google it and download it. We will be using DS3617xs as it offers a bit more IMO. If you want to use a different model just substitute the extra drivers file, the serial number generator, DSM and loader files. 1. Download the loader https://mega.nz/#!zcogjaDT!qIEazI49daggE2odvSwazn3VqBc\_wv0zAvab6m6kHbA 2. Download the extra drivers http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file\_id=06641076704622277403 3. Download DSM https://archive.synology.com/download/DSM/release/6.2.2/24922/DSM\_DS3617xs\_24922.pat 4. Use a new flash drive or clear a flash drive using diskpart in CMD. I recommend a USB 2.0. and go into the device properties to get the vid and pid records. 5. Mount the loader you downloaded in step one on OSFMount. Select partitions 0 and 1 in step 2 by pressing ctrl button while clicking. Make sure read only drive is unchecked in the next step. 2 drives will pop up. 6. Get a serial for your deployment from here https://xpenogen.github.io/serial\_generator/index.html Make sure you choose the model DS3617xs 7. Edit the grub/grub.cfg file. It is located in the first drive. Changing the following `set vid=0x!!!!` `set pid=0x!!!!` `set sn=@@@@@@@@@@@@@` `set mac1=$$$$$$$$$$$$` `set mac2=$$$$$$$$$$$$` `set mac3=$$$$$$$$$$$$` `set mac4=$$$$$$$$$$$$` !!!! are vid and pid. a set of 4 numbers. @ is the serial you generated in step 6. $ is your network nics addresses without the ':'. I have 4 nics so there are 4 records add or remove records as necessary. Change the following record to have 4 instead of 1 `set timeout='4'` save the file and close. 8. Open the extra drivers downloaded in step 4 with 7zip and put the file extra.lzma in the second drive that was mounted in step 5. 9. Open the DSM downloaded in step 3 with 7zip and take the files rd.gz and zImage and put them next to extra.lzma we copied in the previous step. 10. Dismount all drives and exit OSFMount. 11. Run Win32DiskImager and flash the loader we mounted and edited with OSFMount. 12. Put it in the USB slot of your server. Preferably the USB on the motherboard if you have one. 13. Boot your machine and go to BIOS settings. change boot type to BIOS and make the USB with the loader on it the first thing to boot and reboot the machine. 14. download Synology Assistant https://global.download.synology.com/download/Tools/Assistant/6.2-24922/Windows/synology-assistant-6.2-24922.exe 15. wait for the message 'Happy Hacking' and launch Synology Assistant and hit search till you see your machine come live. It will take around a minute to 2 minutes. 16. When going through the installation of DSM. Do a manual install and upload the file downloaded in step 3. Done.

And yet, I've tried copy new zImage and rd.gz to loader maybe try loader 1.04b as it comes from jun, dont change anything, it should at least boot and you should find it in network (vid/pid gets important when installing the *.pat file) if that does not work you can try the same with 1.03b for 3615 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluepr0 Posted April 8, 2020 Share #523 Posted April 8, 2020 Hello guys, thank you for your reply. Sorry that I didn't explain it well, what I meant about tutorial is for adding the extra files to the loaders/PAT files. I'm already running a Xpenology using 918+ so I'm familiar with the installation process. I will try to follow @mosaati steps to get the extra files in!
