      Hi,

      Pfsense is not detecting on-board LAN.

      My machine is having on-board LAN with chipset  "Realtek 8111F chip (10/100/1000 Mbit)"

      Do anybody have an idea about this chipset compatibility with pfsense

      Pls reply

        Based on that info it's hard to quess.
        What pfsense you run, it determines freebsd what is running under it

        Google is your best friend in this case: type freebsd 8.? hardware compatibility list and search your nic from there..

        And how to solve what freebsd your pfsense is running: try this

          That NIC was not supported until FreeBSD 8.3, which is later than the 8.2 current pfsense is built on.
