Marvell Yukon situation worse in RC1...

[Tim]

Just fresh-installed RC1 (build 5600) and the old pre-RC1 problem with
connecting thru a Linksys router is reoccurring and worse. The previous fix
was to set the Marvell Yukon advanced property "IPv4 Checksum Offload" to
disabled. In RC1, this is now the default setting, but Internet connection
thru the router is still broken. I'm connected straight to my cable modem
as a workaround for now. Will log this shortly.

This is a know issue and is addressed in the release notes given to
TechBeta. (No, I have no idea if the release notes will be released
publically, so please don't ask me). The notes indicate that there was a
regression from Beta 2 builds and that MS is pursuing. Expectation is to
have it corrected by release or shortly after. (Please, don't shoot the
messenger.)

That's funny.

is this a problem in both 32 and 64bit versions? It is broken in the 32bit i
just upgraded to. Does a clean install still have this problem?

 

[Colin Barnhorst]

I am not having any issues with Marvel Yukon in 64bit. At least in terms of
simple connectivity.

why don't you try the beta driver for vista from the marvell web site?

Doesn't work in pre-RC1 or RC1, already tried it.

Thanks, here 32bit will not see my network. I will now go setup 64 bit and
check it out.

I was not able to get mine to work at first with rc1 64 bit. It worked great
in beta 2 64 bit.
I did a clean install.
IPv4 Checksum offload was disabled by default on mine also.

Mine started working by disabling
TCP checksum offload(IPv4)
TCP checksum offload(IPv6)
UPD checksum offload(IPv4)
UPD checksum offload(IPv6)

Thanks Tim for giving me the idea to disable the other checksum offloads

I can confirm this is also a problem with a Netgear 834G router. Vista shows
as connected to internet, but cannot get a connection at all. Netgear router
asks you to log on, but then will not go any further.

Disabled the settings as below, and that worked fine (thanks guys).

One thing to note..... Vista's good, but without a working internet
connection, it wouldn't last long on my PC !!!

Disabling the CHECKSUMs for for IPv4 and IPv6 fixed me up in 32-bit 5600.

What do you mean by "release or shortly after" ? The final release?

Oddly, I too installed the Yukon beta driver, and still, no luck on RC1.
Same network slowdown issue. I also tried disabling the verious checksum
options, no help.
