ETx13 Posted July 8 Report post Posted July 8 Recently (pass few months) I've noticed that after a restart the servers don't reconnect to the network. After I login, then it reconnects automatically. We just got 2 new Dell servers, fresh install of Server 2022 (not on domain yet) and the issue is still there. Every time I restart them, I have to use iDRAC to remote on to login and then I can RDP and keep working. Anyone else experiencing this or know why this is happening?

anyweb Posted July 8 Report post Posted July 8 i'm guessing it's your NIC (network) drivers, what are they shown as in device manager ? have you tried installing the latest drivers+bios version from dell ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ETx13 Posted July 10 Report post Posted July 10 Looks like it was the network driver after all. Thought I had the latest (we're not in 2017 anymore? Oh boy..) but then found one from last year. Still a bit slow to connect after a reboot but it does so without logging in. As for the BIOS, I learned that LifeCycle from Dell doesn't update the BIOS to the latest version. Found a newer version on their site. Thanks for the tip! It's nice when someone tells you to check on basic things since we all sometimes forget Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
