Building a computer for nas. I purchased a Intel 10g X520 Nic, installed freenas and it gave me an ip of 0.0.0.0, after assigning an ip I couldn't connect to it with my computer.
Someone then told me the Intel nic I was using was a Chinese fake and to buy a new one from a link.
With the new one I then kept getting the same issue, I thought maybe it was something else, however I tried installing freenas on a different computer and it connected to the network just fine with the Intel Ethernet port on the mobo. I then tried that computer with the Intel nic and of course it didn't work.
I then tried the Intel nic on my windows computer, downloaded the driver and somehow it works just fineon windows.
So seriously what nic 10g card do I need to buy to get this thing to actually work? Send me a link.
