      Good morning, I was looking around and didn't see much information about this board. It's a Via minit-itx with to integrated NIC interfaces.
      I've a couple of those installed and I'm having tones of network problems, the NIC interfaces are unrealiable and they fail doing either "load balancing" or straight simple firewall.
      Basically the problems are related to losing connection sometimes, most exactly the last message I saw was something like:

      vr1: vr_stop: Rx shutdown error
      ```after a couple of messages from the interface I wasn't able to copy.

        If you haven't already done so, please try pfSense 1.2.3: See http://blog.pfsense.org/?p=377 and note the download link at the bottom.

          I'll defintevely will try it today, one of my colleagues is going to one of the places we are having problems.
          My setup is Epia EK8000 + D-Link DFE580-TX + Multiwan only with failover.
          Altought I haven't seen information related to my case on the changelog updating does worth a try.

          Cheers

                I hope you can find what's wrong with Via, we almost lost any hope an we are currently trying to switch to another hardware (http://linitx.com/viewproduct.php?prodid=11714).
                We have got many troubles, going from wrong design in the PCI Raiser (D-Link card wouldn't start) to weird issues with interfaces flapping all the time.
                If you can solve the problems, please post your recipe.

                Good luck
