Mary Andrea Posted October 29, 2020 Share #1 Posted October 29, 2020 Anyone know if its possible to add an rj45 2.5gb or 5gb USB adapter to increase speed from my DSM Xpenology? Firs test doesn't work. I believe have to change DSM configuration, but I don't know how do it - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mary Andrea Posted November 1, 2020 Author Share #8 Posted November 1, 2020 (edited) Here I found drivers prepared by "bbqq" to instal through Manual Packages Instaler https://github.com/bb-qq/r8152/releases for Xpenology DSM 6.2, emulation 3617xs , drivers 2.12.0-3, Works in my case. BUT I can't INCREASE SPEED, I've modified MTU to Jumbo 3000, but nothing change. I thk i cant find a good configuration, only can do DSM detect USB and Net . Works, but more slow than 100intel net card . So Could someone help me to reach speed? >>> ( I've to say that extra.lzma I cant instal yet (i afraid do it, I¡m so newbie). thk. ¡¡¡ Gurus!

IG-88 Posted November 1, 2020 Share #9 Posted November 1, 2020 (edited) imho you should not need that spk when using my extra.lzma also the most common reason seems to be wrong usb port or speed degradation of a 3.0/3.1 gen 1 or 3.1 gen2 port use "lsusb" to see how fast the device is connected with usb ash-4.3# lsusb |__usb1 1d6b:0002:0310 09 2.00 480MBit/s 0mA 1IF (xhci_hcd 0000:00:14.0) hub |__1-5 051d:0002:0106 00 1.10 12MBit/s 24mA 1IF (American Power Conversion Back-UPS XS 800CI FW:920.T2 .I USB FW:T3 3B1409X17540 ) |__1-7 f400:f400:0100 00 2.10 480MBit/s 224mA 1IF (SanDisk Ultra Fit 4C531001641217111165) |__usb2 1d6b:0003:0310 09 3.00 5000MBit/s 0mA 1IF (xhci_hcd 0000:00:14.0) hub to use higher network speed you need a 5000MBit connection to your usb network adapter your description fits a 480MBit (usb 2.0) connection that might result in 30-45MB/s speeds edit: see this for more information and about problems/solutions https://xpenology.com/forum/topic/17690-drivers-for-usb-30-to-ethernet-255-gbit/ Edited November 1, 2020 by IG-88 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Andrea Posted November 1, 2020 Author Share #10 Posted November 1, 2020 Ok, certainly 1) The port where the usb 2.5 is connected is the 3.1 gen1 of the mother gigabyte b365M. I tested in all ports (usb2 too) of this mother, result is the same.. 2) Indeed, it does not exceed the speed of 30-45mbs -- thanks, i will try to edit yours extra lzma I've looked for your extra.lzma, but I can't find where to download it? I should record it in the grub right? With the miniTools and OfMount? thks a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mary Andrea Posted November 1, 2020 Author Share #14 Posted November 1, 2020 Imagined, Understood that, but firstly I needed to be sure with DSM, now I will buy another thunderbolt adapter for Mac ... step by step, on the mac its easier for me. thk always IG-88 , are you my Guru!! my Nas working good !

(do you thk its easy to compile it?) the driver is UP TO 5.6 not exclusive to 5.x like the intel igc driver (intels 2.5G nic), the versions before worked and realtek makes sure older kernels can use it too i already downloaded that version in october and it will be part of the next extra driver but apart from that, just because there is new driver it does not means we need it, if it supports new hardware like a new chip version then we may need it but in most cases it just for new developments in newer kernels that are in development or bugfixes and even bugfixes are not so often needed by the majority, the driver is already out for a while and is working fine for most people Edited November 7, 2020 by IG-88 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
