Hardware suggestions

I installed Windows 10 and also Ubuntu on my QOTOM-Q330G4 today. I confirmed that they must have performed a defective manufacturing job on the motherboard. So in a nutshell I was able to confirm that they somehow managed to swap Int 2 and 4 on the board so that explains the behavior that I am seeing:
Int 1 –-> ibg0
Int 2 ---> ibg2
Int 3 ---> ibg3
Int 4 ---> ibg1I would contact the seller on Amazon and see about submitting return, but this is the 2nd Qotom box that I have bought in the past month. With them having to ship from/to China it becomes a PITA and then I would have to wait another week or two before I could get my new setup running which would not be good seeing as how I am already a few weeks behind. I am almost out of return time with my Ubiquiti AC Pro from MicroCenter and really need to get my openVPN squared away for work. It sucks, but I guess that I am just going to deal with it being messed up.

That's not a fault …. It's a QOTOM "feature" ;)
Mac Phys port BSD name ----------------------------- xx6F 1 igb0 xx70 4 igb1 xx71 2 igb2 xx72 3 igb3That's the layout on my i5 , and a lot of other people reports the same "swap".
Now that you know it, you can just cable accordingly.If it were linux you could swap the ifname vs mac-addr , i don't know if you can on FreeBSD.
But i don't see it as a problem , just a minor inconvenience./Bingo
