I had a USB to ethernet adapter sitting around and plugged it in, I got a working interface I could assign to LAN and then use the web.  Not all USB to ethernet adapters will work, but if you have some sitting around it may be worth a try.

I tried that but both of my USB nics would crash before I could download the package :/ But thank you very much for the suggestion and for taking the time to answer :)

You can download realtek-re-kmod and os-realtek-re from the OPNsense repo and install them from a flash drive.

Amazing, the url for the packages was what I was missing I kept trying to find one but couldn't (can I blame it being 4am when I gave up)
Thank you ever so much for taking the time to help out

Hi Everyone and thank you to anyone taking the time to read this.

Until today, I was happily running OPNsense 24.1, then I decided to finally force the update. Because I couldn't get 24.1 -> 24.7 to upgrade, I (very stupidly) decided to blow away my 24.1 version and start with a clean install... Now, I cannot get my Realtek RTL8125 nics to work... at all. They are not recognized. Last time I managed to find a driver and manually load it. This time... well I can't access the WebGUI because no nics so the "os-realtek-re" package isn't happening for me and I seem to not be able to find any drivers I can chuck on a USB and install myself.

Can anyone help (beyond telling me to get intel nics)? Any links? Any idea?

Thanks in advance for your time :)
