      Hi, I'm quite new to pfSense. As I tried to install aquantia-atlantic-kmod pkg, it failed with "version mismatch" error. The version I tried to install is 0.0.5_2 (AMD64). I fetched the pkg from FreeBSD 14.
      Does anybody who help me to this issue? My pfSense system is:

      CPU: Core-i5 13th
      RAM:16GB
      SSD:1TB (pfSense) + 1TB (FreeBSD)
      NIC: Intel X540-T2 (working), AQC107(not working)

      Thank you!

        Welcome!

        pfSense is an appliance distribution, which only supports a limited number of packages via it's Web GUI

        System -> Package Manager -> Available Packages

        Trying to install other packages via the command line will only result in problems.

          @elvisimprsntr Thank you very much for your reply. I understand. At least intel NIC works fine, I keep using them.

            That package includes a kernel module which means it has to be build against the pfSense kernel specifically. We don;t build that pkg so you would likely need to build it yourself which is non-trivial!
