I thank you, my dhcpcd works without problems, what happens is that I have a physical problem on the phone line, the internet input cable to my house is damaged and they won’t fix it for me … maybe next week. … 🤷‍♂️

After the check all my linksys and firmware, all was fine.  
Then I tried on others OS, conexion was working well as usual…

So I got some infos debug in testing then I saw that the IP wasn’t well assigned !!

I release it :

```
sudo dhcpcd -k

```

then request a new one :

```
sudo dhcpcd

```

And it seems to work for now, need to reboot to see if I get it automatically now !

I was going to ask you if you cleared the dhcp on this router. I used to have one of those way back in the days!

@joekamprad my old Linksys doesn’t need electricity !!

So I’m on it to resolve it, I stopped the Network Manager.service then activate the dhcpcd one.  
I tested on other OS, it works well, I downgrade to dhcpcd-8.1.7-1-x86\_64.pkg.tar.zst it works well.

It seems that I have this driver r8169 where on my motherboard is 8168 !!

> 19:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 15)  
> Subsystem: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd. [MSI] RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller  
> Kernel driver in use: r8169  
> Kernel modules: r8169

I will restart and see if the dhcpcd.service will start before the network module is loaded !!  
If yes I will add a **/etc/modules-load.d/realtek.conf**

Thanks to ask @ricklinux I’m going right now to resolve this…

I just found that r8169 Realtec is not a reference !!!  
But it works on all others OS…the dhcpcd update was fatal…

So does this mean you are switching to the r8168?

Nope I didn’t still, it works well now, no need to create a **/etc/modules-load.d/realtek.conf**  
If I see some problems I will check this but now it’s working at start.

Just need to deactivate the applet NetworkManager

Yep it works, the only problem is the NetworkManager that doesn’t want to stop, it always come back on, I believe it comes from udev kernel ??? The same with the NM Applet…

It seems to boot faster.

So the issue is **r8169** used in spite of **r8168** from a wrong material detection on the **Linksys WRT54GS v1. 0**.

1/ update dhcpcd at latest  
2/ install r8168  
3/ stop NetworkManager.service  
4/ stop NetworkManagerApplet.service
