Thank for the link. I have try it - but the USB LAN is not working. Do you need some more information?

[dtechsrv]

First, I need a dmesg and an lsmod output.

According to the signs, the driver is loading and the module is fine. I only see one error message, but I don't know which interface it belongs to.

Can you send an ifconfig output as well?

[MyKeySoftMK]

Here is the output - only the WLAN is connected

Did the integrated interface (eth0) work before? I need a clean dmesg and ifconfig under the lastest stable image (v9.2.8.7).

[dtechsrv]

Wait a minute, your box is actually a stick without Ethernet. In this case, DTB is not suitable either.

My last working Version was "OpenELEC 5.95.5.2"

Yes - I must put in the USB-LAN to use it

[MyKeySoftMK]

Sorry - I found out the problem: the OTG-Adapter was from wrong type - they didn´t give the power to the LAN-USB. Now I change them and it works fine.

Thank you very much. You can close the Issue

Can I get a dmesg and an ifconfig under the working system? If everything is okay, the updated driver will be included in the kernel from the next version.

[MyKeySoftMK]

Yes - no problem - here are the files for you

dmesg.log ifconfig.log
