  • pfSense – Update Realtek driver v1.95

    Download driver:

    jselec mirror: http://jselec.nl/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/if_re.zip

    Unzip & Place “if_re.ko” file at “/boot/kernel“

    Change ownership and permissions on the if_re.ko file

    chown root:wheel if_re.ko
    chmod 0555 if_re.ko

    Then edit “/boot/loader.conf” to add this line:

    if_re_load="YES"

    Reboot.

    Then go to diagnostics > command prompt in the WebGUI

    Run the command

    kldstat

    If you did everything properly you’ll see “if_re.ko” in the list that comes up. If not, the driver isn’t loaded.

    (i didn’t get it loaded myself. Added the line of code to /boot/defaults/loader.conf Then it worked for me)
