Replace /<the path where you stored the rpms>/ with the correct path…
Thats because the packages are signed with a key, but without Internet zypper/rpm can not download the public key of my hardware Repo to compare.
No Problem, only a warning to trust downloaded packages.
Ok, so you’re using auto-negotiation (as expected), but even though both ends are capable of supporting 1Gb/s FD, maybe the ethernet cable is not that great specification, or there is some other issue limiting you to 100Mb/s FD. Not necessarily a problem for you, but check that the link is not flapping from time to time.
Try also configuring a suitable static IP for your LAN. You’ll need to configure the router GW address and DNS as well. See if that works as expected, then we can investigate the router for any potential DHCP issues.
