Ethernet YT6801 not working on Umbrel OS – newbie needs guidance

Hi everyone,

I’m completely new to Linux and Umbrel OS, running it on a Ninkear N10 Pro (Intel N150). My Wi-Fi works, so I was able to connect to the Internet and try installing the driver for my onboard Ethernet (Motorcomm YT6801), but it still doesn’t work :sob: .

umbrel@umbrel:~$ lspci -nn | grep -i ethernet

01:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Motorcomm Microelectronics. YT6801 Gigabit Ethernet Controller [1f0a:6801] (rev 01)

If anyone has experience with Motorcomm YT6801 on Umbrel, or can point me in the right direction, even just hints or tips, I would greatly appreciate it.

I tried adapting instructions from:

Umbrel forum Wi-Fi driver guide

Umbrel not finding network-card / drivers? (This is also from the community. I’m new to the forum, so I can’t add more than 2 links.)

Motorcomm YT6801 GitHub repository

UmbrelOS 1.4.2

Thank you for your attention!
