Do you have a link light on the NIC?

“No driver attached” in dmesg for 31.6 which is your Intel NIC. Highly unfortunate.
Fiddling with addon drivers is tricky. Doable but tricky. I’ll suggest to side-step the issue by buying an i210 Intel NIC on eBay, they are around 20 bucks, or maybe one of the server intel nics on eBay, around the same cost. You can use that to get up and running and then take your time to find out what’s going on with the FreeBSD drivers for i219v.
