Re: [pfSense Support] Help with NIC Hardwares
This is my exactly point and I have the same experince... a lot of packet losses!! I misread. I apologize :) Neither way...single, dual, quad port(s) Intel's gigabit NICs will do the job as I stated before. Sun's gigabit NICs too(intel based). Although I don't know much about Broadcom's NICs because some are recognized in FreeBSD, others aren't. Don't ever think using Airlink, Encore, Zonet, cheapo gigabit(Realtek based chip)...too much packet loss(well that's my experience). -- "It is human nature to think wisely and act in an absurd fashion."

Re: [pfSense Support] Help with NIC Hardwares
I know of that, today, We have two Uplinks with Global Crossing (100Mbits) and Interlig Telecom (100Mbits), for this rates, I need use gigabit cards of course, And thinking that the packets have 1500 of MTU, the PPS are low... But, We are instaling Cisco Router, Telephony and other things related to PSTN e E1 Voice Links and more... the packets are more higher using telephony over the data links. The previsioning of 300kpps is for me slepping well, if you can understand me, today, I don´t need data rates mora than 150Mbits per seconds, what I need is a good hardware interface to make things goes alright...

I've actually had VERY good results with NetGear GA311 gigabit cards. they have TCP/IP offloading too. run like tanks and are pretty inevpensive. not sure about the pps rating on them though -Sean -- From: ""Alexandre F.
