Maybe. I think that hardware can still do full gigabit nat and firewalling.

Well. Next version of pfsense (2.5) will not install into hardware that does
not support AES-NI, so buying such hardware is not wise ?

Please note that next pfsense will not install hardware that is not

This board does round-up gigabit (something like 976 Mb/s) in both
directions on all 4 interfaces: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00XNR4HE2/
The key for me here was the interrupt coalescence of these particular
Intel NICs. A very similar board with Broadcom NICs that lacked this
feature maxed out the

Also, this is an incredibly common question on the pfSense forums. (Not trying

I have an optiplex 970 (possibly 980, don’t recall) with 16GB RAM and a quad

order a knockoff NIC (half the thing’s from eBay), so I’m surprised it’s
performing this well, but it’s been rock solid. Granted it’s for hom
