I have dual boot XP & Mint.
I connect to Internet thru Belkin Router.
I find that of late the Wired Network connection does not connect in Mint if loaded first.
If I boot into XP first it connects. Then as I restart & boot into Mint, it connects.
Connection info
Interface Ethernet eth0
Speed 100 Mbps
Driver r8169
Ipadd etc as per Belkin
Any reason? Any help?
Thanks

Re: Connecting to Wired Network problem
Hi !
to get the firmware to load correctly and then into Mint to get it to work, but I haven't ever seen it with a wired ethernet device before ?
What version of Mint are you using and what is the make and model of the ethernet device ?

I've seen this kind of behaviour before with wireless devices where the firmware is loaded from the drivers, and occasionally has to be booted into windowsdnmint wrote:I have dual boot XP & Mint.
