Trouble with Dell R210II integrated Broadcom 5790 Nic's
-
Hello
Having some issues with the integrated Broadcom 5790's nic in a new Dell R210II server.
Issues wan won't always pick up an IP and DHCP stops on LAN.
Reboot sometimes resolves if you switch up the cards but then fails in under 24 hours.
Is there a known issue with the Broadcom 5790's and is there a work around other than replacing?Any help would greatly be appreciated.
Thanks

Do you mean 5709?
If you're running Broadcom NICs in Dell hardware then the first thing you should try is this:
