Hi, I am using a fitlet2 and LAN facet card to run pfsense. It works great. Only thing I would like to change is the order of the LAN ports. Is there a way to reorder the PCI Dev ID on the Ethernet ports? I would like to be able to have them go 1,2,3,4 ...

I've used various Fit-PC and Fitlet equipment for pfSense over the years and generally, been really happy. Currently using an RM 4LAN Fitlet (previous version) with 8Gb RAM and a 256Gb SSD for various routing, firewalling, IDS/IPS (Snort), VPN, caching ...

I bought a fitlet2 (E3950) directly from fit-iot.com, planning on using it as a small form factor pfSense router, but I've hit a snag. The Ethernet interfaces are not visible in any OS. I've combed through the BIOS, and can't find any option that would enable or disable ...

... MicroSD. In this case I get to the bootloader to select single user, multiuser etc and it shuts down after a selection is made.

Hi lutzn, We are not aware of mass network ports failures on Linux/Windows7/Windows10 machines. Possibly it's something specific to FreeBSD family kernels. Please clarify what exactly hangs. Do you see related kernel messages? Do you see device in PCI listing after the hang? Are you able to dump it'...

Compulab provides full support for Linux mint only.
Nevertheless, we will try to suggest optional solutions, but cannot guarantee the proper functionality on FreeBSD.

forwarded the information to the R&D for advice.

Thank you.

Hi, we and our customers are using fitlet-XA-10 with pfSense and have the same problems for a very long time now: The NICs simply do hang after a while. We are very experienced with pfSense and manage pfSense installations on different platforms since ...

... that the GPU is disabled. Is that correct? I want to have it as a headless machine, but if for whatever reason I need to access the ESXi/pfSense/etc console and connect a HDMI cable, the monitor isn't coming out of standby. Is there a BIOS setting to force enable the GPU always? Thanks.
