@Kris.J:

Woot!

I just snagged 3 of them for $18.95 USD each.  ;)

He's got more:

Thank you for the pointer.  I snagged a Dell Dimension 4600C off Craigslist, and bought one of these dual cards off eBay for my replacement to a Linksys RV082.

Cheers, Liam

Yes, thanks Hoba - low profile is indeed specifically what I wanted.

Well this seems to be just the thing I needed.
I've logged probably about 6 hours of WoW thru pfSense with these NICs, and as far as I can tell the lag has gone away.  Play experience feels MUCH improved!  ;)

I tried the drive on Linux 2.6.23.08 from a System rescue CD I had.  Here's an extract from the startup output. This version of Linux isn't very happy with this drive either. I think if I get to use this drive it will be through a USB card reader.

No.
You would have to hack ifconfig aliases from the command line
–> not supported.

Got it all working. The untagged ports on the Dell are set to general/VLANx/ingress filtering disabled and everything is trunked to the LAN interface of pfSense.

Got it. Thanks.

For anyone else investigating this same problem, this is definitely the fix. Apply upgrade, reboot. Apply the same upgrade image again and choose multiproc. Reboot. You should be in business.

Thanks, thats good information.

Multiport LAN cards I have experience with are built two different ways:

a PCI bridge interfacing to the slot and a number of separate LAN devices downstream (away from the CPU) of this bridge. Your card is clearly not a card like that.

a "multi function" PCI chip with effectively multiple NICs in the one PCI "device". Your card is clearly not like that either.

I saw your card is supported by the msk driver in FreeBSD 7.0. I went looking in the driver and it appears (from memory) that the driver creates a mskc device for the single function PCI device on the card and creates one or two (depending on the chip) msk child FreeBSD devices.

I downloaded the same version of the yk driver you did but a little over two years ago. A quick scan through that and I didn't see any place where it might create two FreeBSD devices for a single PCI device, hence I suspect the yk driver you downloaded will support only one port.

This post (http://blog.pfsense.org/?p=174) suggests pFSense 1.3 which is based on FreeBSD 7.0 will be out for testing quite soon. Perhaps if you need the second port and are prepared to work with the early versions you could wait for pfSense 1.3. The msk driver could probably be backported to FreeBSD 6.2 but I suspect it could be a bit more involved than a recompile.

If you need something quicker and don't mind spending the money, the best alternative is probably an Intel multiport GigE card. If you can get one based on the 82571 chip it should just work. (The 82575 chip is a bit newer and may not work with the FreeBSD 6.2 em driver. If I recall correctly, pfSense 1.2 is based on FreeBSD 6.2.)

I have a similar system to what you propose but with the single 10/100 LAN port daughter board. It works fine running Smoothwall. I'm looking to change to pfSense.

You should be ok with whatever hardware you take (ALIX as server)

Take a look at the http://pfSense.com page

VPN - Heavy use of any of the VPN services included in pfSense will increase CPU requirements. Encrypting and decrypting traffic is CPU intensive. The number of connections is much less of a concern than the throughput required. A 266 MHz CPU will max out at around 4 Mbps of IPsec throughput, a 500 MHz CPU can push 10-15 Mbps of IPsec, and relatively new server hardware (Xeon 800 FSB and newer) deployments are pushing over 100 Mbps with plenty of capacity to spare. Supported encryption cards, such as several from Hifn, are capable of significantly reducing CPU requirements.

Checkout the pfSense blog.  They have a parts list of all the stuff you need.  http://blog.pfsense.org/?p=155

Try to disable all other resources in the bios that you don't need (soundcards, additional com ports,…) to free up some resources. Make sure you run the latest bios versions. If that fails I don't know what else to try besides using another cf-ide adaptor or things like that.

There is some pretty detailed information on the m0n0wall forum if you search for nokia there. I'm not sure it applies to ip330, but you could take a look.

Search?  ;)

Well, ok http://devwiki.pfsense.org/BootOptions (disabiing ACPI).

When installing pfSense it will ask you for the kernel to be installed. Either choose it there or apply the fullupgrade to your system. It will ask you for a kernel selection on upgrade (dropdownbox).

@Perry:

This old wink video might help you out.
http://www.hotlinkfiles.com/files/99466_h4vnm/vlan_setup_part1.swf

After this video, I only have the following words:

-Thank you all!!!
-Thank you the PFSense team for doing a so powerful, rich of futures, and easy to configure, and to set-up firewall!
-Thank you all the supporters!
-Thank you < thinair> for the time and Preseverence To do a so complete and explainfull drawing along with it’s explanation!
-Thank you < Perry > for your reply with the video!

To informational.
I desactivate ACPI mode at boot and the problem doesn't occured.

Bye

This is likely related to the fact that we switched from a default SMP kernel to uniprocessor on the live CD. You can install from 1.2-RC2 and earlier, then upgrade via the web GUI or console upgrade to 1.2 release.

1.2.1 will switch back to the SMP kernel on the live CD because of strange issues with hardware not working that should with the uniprocessor kernel. This appears to be another instance of this.

16-bit cardbus? That seems to be a pretty old interface. Newer buses are 32 bit and most likely your wireless cards are 32 bit too. There usually should be a notch preventing the card to slide in into that bay iirc. Those old 16 bit buses usually had 5V I think whereas the new 32 bit pccards use 3.3V. I think that's not going to work then. Add a PCI-Card if that box has PCI-slots.
