pfsense not detecting my built in NIC
- 
 i use the latest version 2.1.1, but unfortunately still not recognize by pfSense 
 sorry Mr jaredBusch, what do you mean by "wget "thanks Sir 
- 
 wget is a command line tool for downloading files from the web. 
- 
 ohh great, hhhhh the friendly GUI make us not interesting in command line, 
 but the command line method remain the most strong way of configuration
 ok, so i can for example load the driver by using command line mode in pfsense ??
- 
 If you can find the driver, yes. 
- 
 ah, i see, this need some research on how to write the right script for doing so 
 is pfsense use the same syntax as linux ??? or it has specific syntax
- 
 No. It's not related to Linux. BSD is its own OS family. 
- 
 ok, i see, i will get around thank you all see you with another topic 
- 
 Might be easier to test out something else. Have you looked at SmoothWall? 
- 
 Easiest thing to do would be to buy an add on card that is compatible and forget about the built in NIC. 
- 
 hhh, both of your suggestion are great and worth a try 
 thank you a lot
- 
 You bet. Hope that they help. 
- 
 oooooooooooooh, very very gooooood idea, i make another additional NIC and pfsense recognize them both 
 thank you very much Mr jaredBusch and Mr scott too
 we learn from you too much, i hope one day i can help others
- 
 Let us know if it works.  
- 
 everything work like a champ thank you very much 
- 
 Awesome! Glad that it is working. 
- 
 thank you very much, 
 and for jaredBusch i'm very appreciated for his excellent ideabest regard 
- 
 I'm just curious. How did you convert the driver over for pfsense? I am having a heck of a time getting they Optiplex 3020 Internal nic to work with pfsense. I've tried ndisgen and attempted iconv on pfsense but I've had zero luck. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

 @scottalanmiller Thank you!

 You will have the best luck with Intel based nics on BSD/Pfsense
