      How can I test my network cards to find out more about this?

      You replace them one by one and see if your problem magically disappears.

        Hehe, yeah, but this is so random. In any case, we'll see if other things arise before moving there.

        But you really believe a network card can crash the whole system like this??

        As for this that you mentioned :

        Fatal trap 9: general protection fault while in kernel mode
        cpuid = 0; apic id = 00

        Awaiting your insight from our configs for the other aspects of my problem.
        Thanks! ;)

            Gah, that's not good at all. CPU error of some sort. No wonder your system keeps rebooting. Others have had similar issues:

            https://forum.netgate.com/topic/44740/hw-experts-kernel-mca-cpu-0-cor-over-gcache-lg-err-error

            Check for BIOS updates for your board and microcode updates for the chip. Try using a benchmarking tool to pound the CPU and see if it fails. It could be a power-supply issue. It could be a heat issue. Is your CPU fan running?

            You're going to have lots of fun debugging this.

              MCA/MCE messages are 100% a hardware error and cannot be anything else.

                    @KOM, thanks. there is no Bios update for that machine unfortunately.

                      I'm sure @kiokoman was just joking with that meme.

                      A BIOS update would be a Hail Mary for sure since this seems like a clear case of bad hardware, but I always say to try the simple fixes first before you roll up your sleeves for the harder ones.
