No, just the hardware interface. I'm running out of ideas other than trying a different network card - even if just for testing. Switch to an Intel or Broadcom Gigabit adapter and watch if it survives a week or so.

You can still use the 10G for file sharing and run the jails over a different interface if that helps.

Welll I do have an intel NIC in there.

That’s what I used before and never had this issue. I then got the 10G nic and started having this issues

Is there a way I can create a task to restart the server every 5 days at 5am?

I’m assuming to use intel NIC FOR JAIL, I would make new interface and call it bridge1 then tell the jail to use that bridge?

Or change bridge0 to have the Intel NIC as member instead of the Chelsio. If you don't run jails on an interface, you don't need a bridge on that interface. Move the IP address to the Chelsio without bridge again. Don't put an IP address on the Intel, only disable hardware offloading and put "up" into the options field. Make Intel card member of bridge0.

That should do it.

so it's been like 3 weeks. and i never had any disconnection issue.

i didn't change any setting. I have 2 NIC cards and it was annoying to see them on the dashboard after i installed the 10GB NIC, so i used TUNABLES to disable those 2 NICs..

I simply went and deleted all those TUNABLES and now my jails are working fine without the weekly disconnection. Not sure what happened with the TUNABLEs, but seems like it was the reason that was causing the disconnection.
