      Hello,
      I have a Pfsense 2.0 RC1 installed with 4 network cards. All works fine but i have somme pb with the OPT2 interface.
      The chipset is an RTL8168.
      She's detected, has a  static IP and "up" in status page and the Leds behind are blinking.
      A "pass all" rule is active.
      But when i sent an ICMP packet (or ARP) no response. If i make a capture on this interface : no packet captured.
      When i sent a ping from Pfsense, packet are received by my computer, answers are sent but Pfsense re-sent the request (ARP).

      To resume : it seems that packets are emitted by this interface but no packet received. In the Interface status page the "In" packet counter stay at "0".

      If anybody can help me …
      Thanks

        Tried another cable?
        Have you tried this with a cable connected directly to another PC as a test?
        It shows the link as 100M but that is a gigabit NIC, is it really connected to a 10/100 switch?

          Yes i tried with a cross cable to a PC and a patch cable to a switch which is a really 10/100 …

          thanks for your help ... i'm looking for an over Pci-e network card to verify if it's an hardware problem.

            Hello i'm back.
            I've change my network card and the pb is not solved.

            Can you think that it could be an IRQ pb ? i've 4 network cards, 1PCIe, 2 PCI and an integrated.

            Thanks for your reply.
