Part's question.

Hi, I've been planning to build a pfsense router for some time now and have a few parts I have in mind to get for the build. I was wondering If this dual port nic card would work with pfsense and If the teaming function would work as well.
Intel EXPI9402PT 10/ 100/ 1000Mbps PCI-Express PRO/1000 PT Dual Port Server Adapter http://www.intel.com/products/server/adapters/pro1000pt-dualport/pro1000pt-dualport-overview.htm
If not any suggestion's on a replacement card would be welcome as long as It's pci or pci-e and teaming work's with It In pfsense.
Thanks.

I guess you missed the Search function ;) I see at least 2 other threads referring to that specific card. If you look at the supported hardware list (hint, the pfSense front page is a good starting point) you may just find it too.
The "teaming" function (aka bonding) requires support in the switch too.

This I know….The switch I plan to get support's teaming, and i searched for the card and found the 2 other post's as well as noticed they were 9+ month's old.

If It would help the switch I'm getting is this one.
