Anders,
Thank you for your firsthand account. I was looking at this unit, but
concerned about the realtek nics... I've had problems with those in
the past, but if it works for you, then I'm interested. Are you able
to use each of the 6 lan ports on this unit as a different
interface/subnet in PFsense? If so, PFsense makes this a heavy duty
little box.
I stated it somewhere in a forum post recently I believe, the Realtek
NIC's in embedded hardware always seem to be very reliable (contrary to
some of the wide array of PCI cards with Realtek chipsets that are out
there).
I have multiple embedded devices with Realtek NIC's from vendors on our
recommended vendors page, including a FX5620, and they're all rock
solid. I use mine as a VLAN router at home, trunk on the gig interface
with other network segments coming into other interfaces.
