    @vmb I have upgraded my 2.5.2 installs to 2.6.0 today. The automatic notifications I have configured made it clear that 2.6.0 works better for me.

    @cpmiller22 probably a bit late but I had a similar requirement and ended up with a Kettop Mi7500L6 for $408 with shipping and added a cheap SSD and 8Gig of memory. This should easily do a 1Gbps connection, manages it for me no issues and I have PPPoE in the mix. Draws only around 5 watt when idle, no fans, all passively cooled so completely silent.

    ifconfig bnxt0 -vlanhwfilter Is what I expect. Again I can't test that.

    Does it do that on a different monitor? I have seen things try to drive 4K and fail. But they usually just show nothing in that case.

    @stephenw10 well. The point is I have a old desktop serving me as server and virtual gets me a better throughput. It's a shame... I thought the sg1100 would get me a gig

    @stephenw10 Thank you for the info! I will definitely open a ticket now. I did try all the baud rates (2400, 9600, 19200, 38400, etc) and nothing is visible once I press F1. Great support!

    Not really, anything that is VLAN capable should be fine in that application. Steve

    @terrencettibbs Follow up... I can confirm that the HP 779791-001 network cards 10gbe 546sfp+ works with Pfsense 2.5.1 running on DELL R220. Running 1230v3 XEON and 32GB. Will post again when I've done some iperf testing. See if I can get anywhere near 10gbps. Power consumption for anyone interested is 38W on idle using SSD for OS drive. I now have 2 x 10 gbe for LACP VLANS and 2 onboard 2 x 1gbe for the WAN and WAN WIFI FAILOVER. Now I can intervlan route without powerhog L3 switches!

    There have been 3 releases since then. 21.05 is the current release for the SG-3100. You may have the update repo set to 2.4.X deprecated deliberately to remain on the 2.4 branch. Otherwise I would run at the command line: pkg-static -d update See what error that returns that's preventing you see the update. Steve

    basically a nice to have option in gui/web interface. If we can do nic assignments via webui, i am certain a few more tweaks, we'll be able to rename.map nic orders via web ui as well. not everyone is a *nix person and getting those nic orders via command lines into files are not easy, esp over console. anyways, issue is now sorted, thanks to my colleague who helped me with nic ordering. thanks Steve

    @frankzappa said in PfSense on a Dell Latitude E6420: Presto Gigabit Ethernet Pro ExpressCard Correction: The Presto Gigabit Ethernet Pro ExpressCard is connected to the WAN side. Works great. VPN is rock steady as well VLAN's and all my plug ins. I decided not to run Suricata as it takes too much work to dial that puppy in. Solid performance.

    Yeah, that's what I was suggesting. That can often show errors of that kind with more useful output. I'm not sure you can see which DIMM might potentially be responsible there. Not unless it specifically shows a DIMM slot and your error output does not. Steve

    @network-stack-445 said in Is pfsense supported on AMD Ryzen Embedded R1505G: The goal here is to stay max at 24W and have atleast a 4 port pfsense and get atleast a 1Gig The simplest, what I can suggest, if the cost is not a big question... (and you want to assemble a high-quality tool quickly) https://www.supermicro.com/en/products/motherboard/M11SDV-4C-LN4F (since we use it I guarantee that it is free of problems) or look here in the mITX category 1 - 10Gig, for networking MOBOs https://www.supermicro.com/en/products/motherboards/embedded-iot-boards for SOHO (cheap - but industrial quality - and here you can choose RAM, CPU, etc.) https://www.asrockind.com/en-gb/mini-itx these are usually 2 port Eth., so I recommend a RISER card and an Intel based NIC add-on f.e. (new or eBay): https://www.silicom-usa.com/cats/server-adapters/networking-adapters/gigabit-ethernet-networking-server-adapters/ or eBay f.e.: Cisco Intel I350: https://www.ebay.com/itm/332514926494?epid=1863966819&hash=item4d6b6f1f9e:g:vgEAAOSweBhaVJpR BTW: The 24W power consumption is pretty exact value, what I'm proposing is MOBO Epyc 3151 if I remember correctly 35W, but I've never seen 10-15W more power consumption with 8GB RAM + 4 port 10Gig I710 + 4 port I350 + 128GB Nvme SSD +SATA DOM So it depends on many things...

    What exactly is the issue you;re seeing here? Some graphics output issue? Generally you do not need a monitor attached to pfSense so an AIO style box isn't a good target. Steve

    @hugovsky said in Tethering Internet access: https://forum.netgate.com/topic/117929/how-to-usb-tether-on-pfsense-2-4-as-router That's one of the problems, having guides from years ago, which make the process sound so complicated. I had occasion to try tethering my pfSense box today because my 'dedicated' TP-Link Archer MR200 would not connect to my ISP - I even tried a few different SIMs. But the tethering was extremely easy. I just plugged in a cable from my phone, switched on 'USB tether' on my phone and 'ue1' popped up so it was just a matter of assigning ue1 as the WAN interface. This is on 2.4.5-RELEASE-p1 which I see celebrates its first birthday today. The date confused me at first since I thought a new release had installed itself, but then saw the year - 2020.

    Hmm, well to rule out the obvious is it possible the fibers are swapped and they are both transmitting on the same one? Surprising that module does not offer 1G. I guess it's just not dual speed. Steve

    I don't use Suricata but pfBlockerNG-Dev Version with some List, TLD Blocking activ. But Suricata will use, up to 1GB, perhaps additonaly. The SG-1100 with eMMC Flash, same Settings: [image: 1622486651089-1bd2b708-ca9c-4617-af4e-8b19aa924183-image.png]
