marlawre Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 My Latittude D630C has been running perfectly - I installed the Intel82566MM.kext and rebuilt the configuration - my Ethernet port started working perfectly. I then ran EDP and did a model build using the Dell Latitude D630 with NVidia (laptop) from the database. It installed the BCM kext which I then deleted, reinstalled the Intel and rebuilt the configuration. Everything else is great - working like a dream. However, I cannot reach the internet. When I go into Safari and run the network diagnostics, there is a green light next to the Ethernet heading. One the Network Settings however, there is an orange light and of course everything else is red. I have tried manually entering the network settings (IP address, subnet, etc.) - I have access to my router configuration so I can check it there. I see the ethernet port live on the router (and all other equipment attached to that router is working perfectly), however, the network configuration never goes from orange to green and I am unable to see the internet. I have restarted all routers, cable internet hardware as the network diagnostic says, but nothing works. Seeing as this started happening after I ran the EDP install, I'm thinking there is something in there that might have changed a configuration option that I am not seeing. Anyone have any ideas on this??? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosmaniac Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 There is a bit of difference between D630 and D630C; I would imagine a different DSDT due to the different chipset components. D630C indeed has an Intel ethernet chip, according to Dell's information, and not a Broadcom chip. EDP keeps backup copies of replaced /Extra in /ExtraBackups; you should be able to use myHack to reinstall your previous /Extra from the backup copy. The model data includes DSDT and SMBIOS files specific for each model, and this is what likely broke your ethernet. You'll need a D630C DSDT, not a D630 DSDT.

marlawre Posted December 4, 2013 Author Share Posted December 4, 2013 Tried reinstalling the original /Extra and rebuilt all caches - no luck - is the only way to go back and re-install from scratch and not install EDP? Anyone have a D630C DSDT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted December 4, 2013 Administrators Share Posted December 4, 2013 did you try deleting all your network interfaces. apply then add them back in networking prefpane? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marlawre Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 Tried that this evening - even configured with a manual IP that says Ethernet is working and network settings are green in the disgnostics screen - but - ISP and everything else is red - can't get to the internet at all.

Administrators Hervé Posted December 5, 2013 Administrators Share Posted December 5, 2013 Are you getting IP settings at all when you switch from manual to DHCP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marlawre Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 Yes - I get the 169.254.x.x generic IP address with a 255.255.0.0 submask - it's nothing like my router settings for DHCP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Hervé Posted December 5, 2013 Administrators Share Posted December 5, 2013 So you're not getting IP settings then... Can you list the contents of your /Extra/Extensions folder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Hervé Posted December 5, 2013 Administrators Share Posted December 5, 2013 Mm, well, if you've already re-run myFix (full), I don't see what could be wrong. Re-install but only replace the Ethernet kext after the EDP build, followed by a new myFix (quick) of course... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
