So my freind upgraded his network to 2.5gb and has been having trouble with pfsense and opnsense. found out it could be his realtek nic in his dell optiplex router. any cheap 4 port 2.5gb nic’s he can try? He can use 2 - 2 port NICs if he must.

    Realtek NICs just never seem to work well with any Unix-like variants. I’ve never had good luck with them in Linux, which has far better/wider hardware support than FreeBSD does.
