23.7 Legacy Series / Re: Switching from IPFire to Opnsense - USB ethernet adapters
« on: January 14, 2024, 08:55:49 pm »
Realtek has a checkered past with their FreeBSD drivers. Personally, I’ve had several OPNSense builds using the RTL8111 adapters, and have had decent luck with them. Had a dual port card in a box my son took to college, and it help up without issue to 4 college boys gaming on the internet.
I have not tried a USB to Ethernet adapter with OPNSense. My advice is to give it a try - it may work well enough for your needs.
