Hi everyone,

I installed El Capitan in my Dell Inspiron 14r 5437 and my realtek 8168/8101E Gigabit Ethernet don't work.
I tried rtl1000 and mieze's rtl kexts, but my realtek don't work.
The kexts don't load and my interface don't appear in system preferences.
How I do to fix that problem?
I put some pics from my system.

Not a desktop. Moved to laptop support.

Never install more than one kext for a given device...

See FAQ for recommendations: http://www.tonymacx86.com/el-capita...faq-read-first-laptop-frequent-questions.html
 
Sorry for created this topic in Desktop.
I try one kext at a time. I didn't install more than one kext.

Note that the network interface must be added in SysPrefs->Networks->[+]
 
HTML:
Then the driver isn't installed properly, isn't the correct kext for your hardware, or isn't loading for some other reason.

ok.
I read some topics and some users used mieze's kext rtl8111 and works fine.
How can I know why kext isn't loading?
 
I solved the problem now. I installed rtl8100 in this link -> http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/296190-driver-for-realteks-rtl810x-fast-ethernet-series/

But, after I had a problem with App Store.
So, I needed delete my interface in system preferences and recreated for try work my App Store, but now my interface don't receive IP.
I configured my interface with IP, speed and duplex manually, but without success.
What I do now?

Correct way to reset interfaces...

Go into SysPrefs->Network and remove all interfaces, Apply, then remove /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist. Reboot, then add all your network interfaces back, starting with Ethernet.

Hi Rehabman,

Thanks for your support. Now, all services is working.
I swaped my wifi card for ar5b95, because my older wifi card not work, and now it's ok too.
I have one new question.
If I have a laptop with windows 10 already, Can I install El Capitan on same SSD in new partition or I need reinstall windows 10 to do a dualboot?
