Solved Network card compatibility

J

Hi, it's a simple compatibility question. I need to buy a quad port network card and i need to know if HP Ethernet 1Gb 4-Port Adapter 331T works fine on FreeBSD.
I was reading some forums saying that it's better to buy Intel cards but Intel card is 50% more expensive here in Brazil.

Thanks
 
Which version of FreeBSD? Web searching says that card has a Broadcom 5719 chipset, which is supported by the bge(4) driver. The HP or the four-port card might need a modified driver. Use the latest version of FreeBSD, 10.1 or 10-STABLE. Can you return the card if it does not work?
