    You are right! It is quite a ride debugging these issues without proper logging to point you in the right direction ^^.

    Last note from my side is that the switch port operated on "general" mode, not strictly "trunk" mode. In my configuration, that meant on the specific port:

    • untagged traffic: VLAN 1
    • tagged traffic: VLAN 10,20,30,... etc.

    ..., which should have been good in my understanding. DHCP was working fine, as the Pi got an IP address in the expected IP range for that VLAN. But that was it... /shrug

    The switch in question is a Netgear GC110.

    For now, I have no issues changing the switch port to completely untagged, as it solves this case and I have no current use case for handling multiple VLANs on that connection.

    Hi all,

    I have an issue where my Raspberry Pi 4 fails to come online via a wired connection. The connection state remains "ready" and never gets itself to "online".

    This occurs on the built-in network interface, but also on a USB3.0 network interface that I tested. I suspect for some reason, the 'online-check' of connman does not initiate. In my logs I can also see that the route described in https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/ConnMan#…e_on_connection is never made:

    On eth0:

    When Kodi has booted, I go into the LibreELEC settings to disconnect to the wired network and connect to a wireless network, and the behaviour shows in the logs like this (wlan0):

    The DHCP server behind both these networks is the same, i.e. there is no difference in issued DNS-servers or time servers for that matter.


    I seem to be reaching in the dark as to why the Pi fails to come online through a wired connection, as the documentation of connman and other online resources do not really help me. Anyone willing to take a guess on what kind of behavior is shown here, and maybe help me out? :S Might it be possible to disable connman's online check, or what might cause it to not be started at all?
