RPI2 with TPLink Gigabit adapter

[Bahazzie]

Hello all,

I am trying to get TP-Link UE300 gigabit adapter to work on my RP2 (latest Xian, no overclock). My Linux knowledge is very low. Tried googling for 2 hours, but no luck. Some facts:

- UE300 reported to work out of the box on Raspian on Google (maybe not Xbian?)
- lsusb lists: Bus 001 port 003: Standard Microsystems Corp. SMSC9512/9514 Fast ethernet adapter
- ifconfig lists eth0 and eth1, I even had eth1 listed as UP, but still no internet

Content of /etc/network/interfaces:

source-directory /etc/network/interfaces.d
auto lo
auto eth0

iface eth0 inet dhcp
iface lo inet loopback

allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp

iface default inet dhcp

allow-hotplug eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp

Can you please help me make this work? Since it's recognized as usbdevice and there's also eth1 listed I have the feeling I'm close...!

Kind regards,

Bas Hamstra
