I tried to restart a couple things I found during my searches but most of them no longer exist. It seems they change names pretty often. I've tried to find anything that looks like network to restart but I can't tell what is what. I found out it has netplan installed. I tried a few things with it but thing is, since it shows as disabled, there's no device to restart or even start to begin with. I looked, the modules are loaded. I checked both cards and they are there. I used lspci -k to get the module names and then lsmod and grep to see if they listed as loaded. To be honest, the network has worked fine ever since the install. Heck, for a while, the NAS box didn't even have a monitor or keyboard. I just power it up, wait a little while, ssh in from my main rig. From there I could do anything I needed to. This time, I had to drag out the monitor and keyboard to see what is going on. I'm kinda stuck. Since it doesn't work when booting the USB install image, I can't even just reinstall and start over. This is plenty odd. Dale :-) :-)
