Hello everyone,
Knowing that FreeNAS is based on FreeBSD, I ask if support for network cards is the same. I mean, I have a PC on which there are two network cards, an integrated, Qualcomm Atheros AR8171 and the other Attansic RTL8168B on PC-Express 1x slot. On this PC I installed FreeNAS 9.3 and I saw that both cards are supported. Then I decided to give it a try to install FreeBSD 9.3 and I saw that neither are supported, it is the same also in NAS4Free 9.3. Why? If both are based on image of FreeBSD 9.3 why the cards are only supported in FreeNAS? It is possible that the list of supported hardware in FreeNAS has been "stretched"?
thanks
G.
