I am looking for a USB ethernet adapter which works with very stable
driver in FreeBSD. To effect this end, I went through section 4 man
pages, and made list of drivers for USB ethernet chips. The problem
is, many are apparently not widely available or in current production
- but I found ASIX AX88178 and ASIX AX88772 (axe(4)) in various
devices from http://plugable.com/ . I am mostly interested in ASIX
AX88178 due to faster speed (albeit limited by USB2 speed).
My questions:
* Does anybody have good or bad experience with Plugable USB2-E1000
(ASIX AX88178) in FreeBSD? Stability is utmost concern, followed by
performance. I note, Amazon.com page for product says also it has
Realtek RTL8211CL PHY - I do not understand why, and cannot find info
explaining this. Is perhaps slower USB2-E100 with ASIX AX88772 more
compatible?
* Any advice on rock-solid usage of USB Ethernet in FreeBSD, and
pointers to other products will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
