Related change already MFCed to stable/8. well, I did that but using that chip on windows :( I got two nics based on these chips but they are unstable as hell in FreeBSD. on pfSense (FreeBSD 7.1 and 7.2 versions) I never got the axe0 media to be active. on 8-stable (this box), one got issues with media link and the other can set link state ok, but looses 10% of ping packets. iperf gets cut every now and then and this makes the throughput suffer :( I plan to use pfSense 1.2.3 (7.2 based) and when available pfSense 2.0 (8.0 based). are there any patches to try ? it is really unstable here ... some logs: Client connecting to 192.168.1.2, TCP port 5001 TCP window size: 32.5 KByte (default) ------------------------------------------------------------ [ 3] local 192.168.1.1 port 42556 connected with 192.168.1.2 port 5001 [ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth [ 3] 0.0-32.7 sec 69.5 MBytes 17.8 Mbits/sec [root@darkside ~]# iperf -c 192.168.1.2 -t 30 ------------------------------------------------------------ Client connecting to 192.168.1.2, TCP port 5001 TCP window size: 32.5 KByte (default) ------------------------------------------------------------ [ 3] local 192.168.1.1 port 45725 connected with 192.168.1.2 port 5001 [ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth [ 3] 0.0-30.6 sec 128 MBytes 35.1 Mbits/sec [root@darkside ~]# iperf -c 192.168.1.2 -t 30 ------------------------------------------------------------ Client connecting to 192.168.1.2, TCP port 5001 TCP window size: 32.5 KByte (default) ------------------------------------------------------------ [ 3] local 192.168.1.1 port 38546 connected with 192.168.1.2 port 5001 [ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth [ 3] 0.0-31.0 sec 129 MBytes 35.0 Mbits/sec this is: FreeBSD xxx 8.0-STABLE FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE #7: Sun Mar 21 03:45:47 BRT 2010 root@xxx:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/xxx amd64 and on both ends there is a nic using this chip, here is this freebsd and the other on windows xp. as said above, when run iperf on this nic on windows and my nfe gigabit I got those 228Mbps said above. thanks, matheus -- We will call you cygnus, The God of balance you shall be A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
