RouterBOARD 44G
-
Hi, first of all i must thanks all of pfSense stuff. great work, great product.
Now im trying to build my new firewall on pfSense 1.2-RC2 with 4 port nic RouterBoard 44G.
My problem is, that pfSense know only 1 port from 4 on this nic.
Please, how can i make function the other ports from this nic?
This is my dmesg.

Driver for "re" is build directly in kernel? Or, how can i load or unload this module?
-
The driver is fine, it works for one of the NIC's.
Typically when you have NIC's installed that don't appear, you need to change some BIOS settings (set PNP OS to no, turn off unused hardware), and/or upgrade to the latest BIOS as BIOS bugs can cause this.
-
Thanks, i tryd all of these attempt. But without any change.
Im using this motherboard with latest bios.
http://www.intel.com/products/motherboard/D201GLY/index.htmI disabled all of unnecessary hardware. No change. :-(
I tryd allso boot pfSense with ACPI disabled. No chenge. :-(Any other OS (Windows xp, Windows 2003, Ubuntu 6.06 LTS) can use my 44G nic without any problem.
I dont know, WHY it is happening if driver works well with one port.
-
dmesg show one port of 44G nic as 8169SB, but on routerbord.com website (http://routerboard.com/rb44.html) is 8169SC. It is possible, tat this is that problem?
-
I made some tests.
This RouterBoard 44G nic function properly on another system, when boot from pfSense boot CD.
So, i thing its something about IRQ, plug and play, or other thinks. But in bios setup of D201GLY motherboard is nothing to set about PNP OS support. :-(
It is chance to resolv this issue another way? FBSD way?
-
Do you thing, other mainboard can resolv my trouble?
Can anyone recommend me other mini-itx mainboard with same power?
I want to use it for pfSense, NAT, two DMZ, OpenVPN - for administratins, trafic to 100 mbps, about 15000 states. It will function as firewall in front of my servers in hosting center.
-
Wht do you thing about:
http://www.supermicro.com/products/system/1U/5015/SYS-5015M-MF+.cfm
Is it recomended fot pfSense?
-
The board used in that chassis is the PDSMI+ and it seems like another user here is having some problems with that board, not with the NICs that you are using though. I've used this board in a Linux environment without issues, it works rather well.
Heres the thread http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,6695.0.html
Have you tried flashing the bios on the D201? The latest bios is dated 10/25.

Thanks for that thread. I rather not to choose this hardware. Rather to find another, fully tested and supported by pfSense. Can you recomend me any?
Yeah, im running this latest bios on my Intel D201GLY. No change. The same problem. No chance to Enable/Disable PNP bios features. Only one port on RouterBoard 44G function ok.
-
Now, i must say, that after i install pfSense 1.2 FINAL, as i describe here http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,6774.0.html, i found that Router Board 44G function properly.
So this combination of hardware and software works great:
Mainboard: Intel D201GLY - bios LY66210M.86A from 1/4/2008 - http://www.intel.com/products/motherboard/D201GLY/index.htm
