[bb-qq]

⚠️If you want to report a problem or get support, please fill out the template and create a ticket in Issues instead of posting in the forum.

• The base code has been updated to version 2.18.1 which includes the following changes:
  • 🥳Added support for new chip RTL8157 (5Gbps) 🤩
    • However, the author has not been able to obtain a product with this chip, so it has not been confirmed that it works.
  • Comply with the kernel's new network driver interface, and many refactorings.
  • Many error handling improvements and additional workarounds, possibly stability improvements
  • ..And microcode updates
• Drivers are no longer released for the following platforms for DSM6.2/7.1 since Realtek has discontinued support for older kernels:
  • evansport, comcerto2k, armadaxp, armada370, armada375
• Confirming stability is still in progress.

Note:

• The installation will fail the first time. After that, run the following command from the SSH terminal:
  sudo install -m 4755 -o root -D /var/packages/r8152/target/r8152/spk_su /opt/sbin/spk_su
• Selecting a proper version is needed depending on your DSM version.
  • DSM 7.2 and above
    • use packages with the suffix _7.2.
  • DSM 7.0 and DSM 7.1
    • use packages with the suffix _7.1.
  • DSM 6.2.x
    • use packages with the suffix _6.2.

I have connected four 2.5GB LAN ports to the rear USB 3.0.

Only one out of the four is recognized.

Is there a way to recognize and use all four?

I am aware that there will be a bottleneck with the USB 3.0 interface.

후면 USB3.0에 4개의 2.5GB LAN을 연결했습니다.

4개 중 1개만 인식 하는데, 4개 모두 인식해 사용할 수 있는 방법은 없나요?

USB3.0 인터페이스 병목현상이 생길 것을 알고 있습니다.

Thank you for the comment.

I have read the content several times, but I could not understand it.

If it's not too much trouble, I'm curious about whether it's possible or not and for what reason you asked to confirm the content.

I keep searching and searching...

I received a comment from another community stating that when using the same USB 2.5GB LAN, only one is recognized, and they are using a product with a different chip.

댓글 감사합니다.

내용을 여러 번 읽었습니다만, 이해 못 했습니다.

실례가 아니라면, 가능? 불가능? 어떤 이유로 내용확인을 물으셨는지 궁금합니다.

계속 검색 또 검색 . . .

다른 커뮤니티에서 같은 USB 2.5GB LAN 사용하면 하나만 인식해 Chip 다른 제품을 사용해 사용 중이라는 댓글을 받았습니다.

I just received my WisdPi USB 5 Gbps Ethernet Adapter (model WP-UT5) with Realtek RTL8157 chipset. The adapter connects at 1 Gbps. Any thoughts?

[TheS1R]

I figured it out by rerouting connections through different switch and adjusting adapter configuration in DSM. I'm now successfully connected with 5 Gbps link to TP-Link TL-SX105 (5 port 10Gbps unmanaged switch). I am seeing about 3.35 Gbps using iperf3 — the limitation appears to be the USB 3.0 ports on the DS718+, which are spec'd at 4.8 Gbps (theoretical).
