Hi. Does anyone know if this device is supported? It=E2=80=99s similar to the EdgeRouterLite (ERL) which does run FreeBSD. = The PoE has 2 WAN ethernet ports and 3 LAN ethernet ports. The ERL has 2 = WAN and 1 LAN ethernet ports. I found a bootable image for the ERL (FreeBSD 10.1) on the net and = installed it. Although this boots and runs OK, the kernel doesn=E2=80=99t = see the 3 LAN ports. I suspect they might be hanging off a second switch = (chipset?) on the motherboard and the kernel doesn=E2=80=99t know about = it or how to probe for it at boot time. FWIW Ubiquiti=E2=80=99s firmware is Linux. I=E2=80=99d prefer not to run = that or try to make sense of Linux kernel code and retro-fit that into = FreeBSD. Here=E2=80=99s what=E2=80=99s in dmesg.boot. The kernel =E2=80=9Csees=E2=80= =9D octe2 which presumably is the first of the LAN ethernet ports. But = it fails to do anything with it. Maybe a device driver needs tweaked to = recognise the slightly different chipset(s) for the PoE?
