I can't recall if this was a FBSD driver issue or a HW issue w/Tyan? In either case, I assume time should result in a fix? The K8S Pro has a 3rd LAN- good old 10/100. Does anyone know if it's using the same or different driver? My guess would be that it's different and hence should work. If so, a bit of patience should remove immediate need for Intel nics.
