      Good morning,

      Thank you very much for help. I read all the instrutions in the link you posted but unfortunatly the downloadlink for the if_re.ko.zip file (https://forum.netgate.com/public/imported_attachments/1/if_re.ko.zip) seems to be broken.

      ![broken link](0_1528780193433_2018-06-12 07_04_54-Window.jpg

      Do you still have a copy of the compiled binary file?
      Thank you in advance for your help

        Hmm, the file is there for me. I wonder if it's a permissions thing....

        Ah, could be botching the link. Try this: if_re.ko.zip

        Ah it tries to follow the link to a page. Weird. Right-click and save-as it will work.

        Steve

          I do still have the binary as well. If you're still unable to download it from here, let me know and I can find another way to get it to you.

            Thank you so much for all,

            I downloaded the file (~140k) that stephenw10 posted. I tell more about about the installation further on.

              @obloned Sounds good! If you run into any trouble, post back here and/or refer back to the thread I mentioned earlier, particularly this section. User bgbird03 had a CI327 nano too and got it working with this driver, but had to add the line hw.re.msi_disable=0 to /boot/loader.conf.local. Also there's other good tips in that thread for things like disabling the SD card reader to speed up boot and such.

                Managed to install if_re.ko this evening. Had to use FileZilla instead of WinSCP who whould not connect for some SSH certificate negociations. With FileZilla

                acces was possible. Followed your very pecise installation Guide Zotac ZBOX CI323 nano. Restarted the box and everything seems to work properly. Will report after (hopefully) some days of continous running. Thank you so much for your help.

                  @obloned Glad to hear it! Good luck; I expect it should be fine now. Did you verify that the new driver is indeed loaded by running kldstat?

                    Yes, gives me this among others:
                    Id Refs Address Size Name
                    2 1 0xffffffff82e2f000 80930 if_re.ko
                    seems allright?

                      @obloned Yup, that confirms it's loaded.
