      I got problem when booting pfsense from CD when I plug 4-port D-link DFE 580TX. The error says kernel panic when detecting the 4-port nic, then auto reboot in 15 secs. But if I unplug the pci card, pfsense works perfectly. Is D-link DFE 580TX isn't supported in freebsd 6?

      I already tried to boot pf sense on different machine with same 4 port card, it also gives same error.

      the machine spec:
      HP netserver lp 2000r
      2x Pentium III 1 ghz
      512 MB ram
      36 GB SCSI 160 10k rpm
      2x Intel onboard NIC 10/100

      The reason I want to add more interfaces is I want to NAT one WAN interface to two LAN interface on different subnet (192.168.5.* and 192.168.1.*).

      Any help would be much appreciated

      Thanks

        Looks like they should be supported. Check your bios settings. Might be some kind of hardwareconflict.
