X-540 T2 didn't boot up on pfSense CE 2.5.0-RELEASE (amd64)

@stephenw10 said in X-540 T2 didn't boot up on pfSense CE 2.5.0-RELEASE (amd64):

There is nothing we can do in pfSense and if looks like FreeBSD upstream can't do anything either since it should not exist.
If you really needed to use it for some reason you could probably recompile the kernel module with the patch on the FreeBSD bug to add the IDs. But you would be stuck compiling it again at each release.
Better to just use a different NIC.

@stephenw10 I already changed to Intel X520-DA2 SFP+ 10Gb Dual Port ;).

Anyway I guess that this thread will be more for information purposes for others that Intel X540T2 is not working with pfSense CE 2.5.0-RELEASE (amd64) .

@jnz07 I replaced mine with a 550-t2 to avoid future issues
