Description of the problem

I've two pieces of Club 3D CAC-1420 in my NAS: the first plugged into the front USB port (assigned to LAN 3 in DSM), the second into the rear USB port (assigned to LAN 4 in DSM).
After restarting the NAS, the LAN 4 in DSM (2nd CAC-1420 at the rear USB port) doesn't start automatically and loses its IP configuration. I made in Task Scheduler a new task (named: Start LAN 4): User: root; Event: System boot; User defined script: sudo ip link set eth3 up. This script starts the LAN 4 (eth3) at boot. But in DSM at Network interface settings some manual configuration settings are lost: IP address and Subnet mask.
Now I'm looking for automatically setting these configs in Task Scheduler, too. (Not yet succeeded, but I think, it must be simple.)

Update:
Temporary workaround, which works:
The new "Start LAN 4" script is:
sudo ip link set eth3 up
/usr/syno/sbin/synonet --manual eth3 192.168.0.12 255.255.255.0

So it would be nice to have these IP settings retained in case of the second CAC-1420 after every NAS reboot.

And "bb-qq" thank you very much for your work, because these two adapters are working well, when I do manual IP settings in case of the second adapter.

Just like you, I want to use 2 x Club 3D CAC-1420 in my NAS. Unfortunately, my Synology only shows ONE of the connected USB-Adapters unter "Control Panel - Network".

The first plugged into the front USB port, the second into the rear USB port.

How can I make both Club 3D CAC-1420 work? I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling the driver. Reboot. Still only shows 1 Adapter.

Can you help?

Screenshot 2023-04-20 150415

LAN1 - 4 (eth0 - eth3) are configured in a Bond.
LAN 5 (eth4) is the first USB-LAN Adapter.

Unfortunately eth5 is missing... that would be the 2nd USB-LAN Adapter (LAN 6).

I just can't get it to work :-(

From the output of the "lsusb" command we can see, that both CAC-1420 devices are recognized at the hardware level:
"|__3-1 0bda:8156:3104 00 3.20 5000MBit/s 256mA 1IF (Realtek USB 10/100/1G/2.5G LAN 401000001)
|__3-4 0bda:8151:3104 00 3.20 5000MBit/s 256mA 1IF (Realtek USB 10/100/1G/2.5G LAN 401000000)"

But it seems to me, that the driver is not loading for the 2nd CAC-1420. So I think the task is to start the driver for the second CAC-1420.
Unfortunately I don't know the solution, but I think, the problem can be solved.
It may also be that the system memory is low (if it only has 2GB of RAM).
I would try the following:

  • As a test, I would unplug all other USB devices if there are any (except the two CAC-1420s).
  • I would transfer the CAC-1420 from the rear USB port to another rear one.
  • I would delete the 4 network bonds (LAN1-LAN4): this would free up a (virtual) network connection. Maybe this might allow the second CAC-1420. Of course, canceling the bond can cause quite a few problems: e.g. DHCP server, binding other services to your LAN IP address, etc.
  • And finally, if you upgrade to DSM 7.2, I would still try to see if the two CAC-1420s work.

Thank you very much for your answers and suggestions.

  • My Syno has 8MB of RAM
  • I unplugged the other USB-Devices --> no success
  • I tried different USB-Portconfigurations --> no success
  • I deleted the Bond --> no success

When I stop the r8152 driver, the Syno sees both USB devices in the Info-Center. But they don't appear in the Network-Center. When I start the driver, only one USB-Adapter is listed in the Info-Center.

Locks like it's not ready to work with 2 similar USB-LAN-Adapters on my Syno.

This behaviour is very interesting. I think that "bb-qq", the maker of the driver might be able to answer this question.

Could you try what happens when you enable the HotPlug feature?
This feature does not handle multiple adapters properly, but the result may work fine.

(Note: This command modifies your system outside of package management.)

For me, the above command (HotPlug feature) works perfectly! The two CAC-1420s work well at the same time.

The steps I took:

  1. I ran the command.
  2. I deactivated my "Start LAN 4" script in the DSM Task Manager.
  3. I restarted DS918+.
  4. Everything works perfectly: In the "DSM / Network interface" menu, all 4 of my LANs are visible and all of them retain their network settings. Both CAC-1420 ("USB 10/100/1G/2.5G LAN - Realtek semiconductor Corp.") are listed in the DSM Information Center.

So my original issue, which I described in the opening comment of this particular thread, has been solved! Thank you!
I'm curious to see if everything will still work well after next week's DSM 7.2 RC update.

Thank you for sharing your results. It is interesting to note that the results are slightly better than with a single 5 Gbps adapter.

I will close this issue as the problem seems to be resolved.

I would be happy to share the summary in this thread as well.
