Title: Realtek RTL8168H Support?
Post by: rs87 on July 31, 2023, 03:21:26 AM
Hi. 
I'm new to OPNSense.  I'm trying to determine if the Realtek RTL8168H NIC is support by OPNsense 23.1 or if additional drivers are needed.  I see a lot of discussions online about Linus, Realtek, PFSense and OPNSense but can't seem to cut through all the noise and get an accurate up-to-date answer to my question. 

Side note: I have a small network and only a 200MB Internet service so my needs aren't that demanding if that makes any difference.  I know its probably better to use an Intel NIC but I already have hardware with the Realtek NIC and I'd like to use that if I could. Thank you.

In a matter of hours you'll have 23.7 so it's best to go with it.

You'll need the os-realtek-re package it seems
