Hardware and Performance / NIC driver installation
« on: August 05, 2016, 12:42:00 pm »
Hi community,
I try to setup an Intel NUC with OPNsense. As the NUC has only 1 NIC onboard, I have to use an USB NIC as secondary. The problem is that the built in drivers are not that stable and the NIC is disconnecting all the time. I went to various blogs and it seems to be a well know problem. I tested now 3 different models with different chipsets. I have now one with Linux drivers on a CD and I want to install them on OPNsense over the shell. Is that possible and how I do that- as I'm not a Linux user at all.
Thanks for any hint.
