What Quad Port Nic Should i buy for pfsense
-
Hello guys i have my own pfsense build which consist of Hp desktop, but the only caveat is that it only has a single intel ethernet card, so i bought some realtek cards, two to be specific. They worked fine for about 3months and then all of a sudden, they freeze. So everytime they freeze i have to VPN and restart the machine. What would be your recommendation for a quad port intel card, since when i check on ebay i find a variety (ET, PT, VM, I340-T4 and 1350-T4)

@OpenWifi Intel i340-T4, i350-T4 or their OEM labeled variants. Here's a couple good articles on cards (and counterfeits).
