Can anyone comment on whether you expect the default rpi3b+ configuration to connect to LAN?
Regards
Andy
It should work. I use a custom configuration, but it was derived from the Buildroot standard originally.

Hi All
I'm trying to get basic networking working with a Rpi-3b+. I note that with the default config,
raspberrypi3_64_defconfig, eth0 is setup as the network interface to configure through DHCP. AlsoBR2_PACKAGE_IFUPDOWN_SCRIPTSare enabled by default.
Don't you use a bespoke kernel? Check if the necessary modules are enabled.
ifupdown-scripts provides an init.d script and generates network/interfaces. Check if the latter matches your system.
Run '/etc/init.d/S40network restart' and follow up on any error messages.

However, when I boot the system with sdcard.img, the pi does not connect to my network. Are there are things that I need to enable that are not part of the default configuration?
My longer term goal is to ssh (using dropbear) into my pi via the LAN, and use iwctl to configure iwd for wireless connectivity. But first I need to establish the LAN connection. Please let me know any advice that you have, or any documentation that you can recommend.
I relied on linux-from-scratch [1] and linux-wireless [2] while setting up wireless networking, but you might succeed just by adding wpa_supplicant and supplying the necessary configuration details.
The Buildroot package handles wpa_supplicant via an ifup/down script; if you use a (custom, via skeleton) init.d script instead, you need to adapt network/interfaces.
Kind regards,
Andreas
