      I have a Plus subscription for my PFSense PC based router, but an issue I have is the intel 2.5Gbe NICs that I am using are only supported in 2.7.0. When I try to upgrade to plus the router no longer works because 22.01 doesn't support my intel i225 NICs. From what I have read I would need 22.05 or maybe the beta 23.01, but it doesn't appear that there is an upgrade path from 2.7.0 directly to these newer plus versions.

      Is there any way I can upgrade to a plus version that supports the intel i225 NIC?

      Thank you for your help

        This might be the only time I suggest a USB-based NIC just to make the steps.

        2.7->23.01 upgrade path I believe is being tested, but it's not on my list of things to be testing at this time so I'm not 100% certain.
