I have problem WAN port stop working, disable the port and enable and it start working again... its happens with low load 10mbit maybe... within 1 hour or so...

you need to manually update https://drive.google.com/open?id=1lBg8AIRiRfGBGeXe9kgKtAAma0VjiYfC
copy to /boot/kernel , rename to if_re.ko
kldload if_re.ko
or build it yourselfto load it at boot
edit /boot/loader.conf.local
and paste
if_re_load=“YES"personally i've lost patience with realtek and at the end i bought an intel card

These should be it ?
Now can I go to bad, and see if internett is still working tomorrow morning :)
Thank you very much !

The problem is still present...
Strange it is only a problem with WAN (re1) and not LAN (re0)... -

@kiokoman are you sure the driver has been loaded ?
Just that I facing the same problem after also.... -

re1: version:1.95.00
It shows it's loaded there. The FreeBSD in kernel driver doesn't show the version as far as I know. I only have 2.5 dev box up right now but:

Try commenting out the line in loader.conf.local and rebooting.

I reinstalled pfsense today and are using WAN on re0 instead of re1 and LAN on re1, so fare so fare, new record in uptime... cross my fingers....
But I cannot understand these shall make any different ?

The driver provided by Realtek can commonly help if you're seeing watchdog timeout errors. But it sounds like that's not what you're seeing so it may not make any difference here. You have nothing to lose by trying it though.

@stephenw10
Problem is still present, card stop working and report DOWN in status underRemember both card is identical network card... strange it’s only WAN card who goes down.
Have now tried disabling «Disable hardware checksum offload»
Is it possible to make the card recycle DISABLE and then ENABLE when these happens, way around the problem until I find a fix?
-
«Disable hardware checksum
Was not fixing the problem....Does anybody know how I can auto disable and enable the card when it goes down?
-
try with
/etc/rc.d/netif restart re0 -
@kiokoman said in Official Realtek Driver Binary 1.95 For 2.4.4 Release:
try with
/etc/rc.d/netif restart re0Thank you, I need some script to detect when it shall happens also...
I found some things to try another place on these forum, so I have added these lines to the boot config:
net.inet.tcp.tso=0
hw.pci.enable_msix=0
hw.pci.enable_msi=0
hw.re.tso_enable=0to the boot loader config, and for now I haven`t seen the issue again, need more hours... will report back later.

Yes, definitely disable all hardware offloading features. Check what is still enabled using
ifconfig re1
.Did you try re-assigning the NICs? Does the fault follow re1 or remain on WAN?
It's likely you are downloading far more traffic that uploading. Whichever NIC is WAN is doing the receiving of that traffic and a number of those hardware offloading features are receive only.Steve

I reinstalled the whole pfsense yesterday and then I swapped so re0 is WAN and re1 is LAN.
The problem have always followed the card I have assigned to be WAN.The problem has not accour after I disabled al the things mention above from the HW i the boot loader. But there is a strange thing the uptime on the box is never 1 hour and 47 minutes, but I have not restarted the box today..... I think there are something wrong with the clock... its not going correct... it`s deviate more and more from the "real time"....
Maybe there is a releation here ? lead time on the DHCP maybe got problem...
I will look into getting the clock correct first.

Make sure NTP is configured and working. All APUs are old now, the CMOS battery may be dead.
Edit: Is this an APU? Not sure where I pulled that from..
