Description

Realtek PCIe FE / GBE / 2.5G / Gaming Ethernet Family Controller kernel driver.

This is the official driver from Realtek with a few patches to improve stability and performance. It can be loaded instead of the FreeBSD driver built into the GENERIC kernel if you experience issues with it (eg. watchdog timeouts), or your card is not supported.

  • RTL8125 / RTL8125B(S)(G)

* 10/100/1000M Gigabit Ethernet

  • RTL8111B / RTL8111C / RTL8111D / RTL8111E / RTL8111F / RTL8111G(S) RTL8111H(S) / RTL8118(A)(S) / RTL8119i / RTL8111L / RTL8111K
  • RTL8168B / RTL8168E / RTL8168H
  • RTL8111DP / RTL8111EP / RTL8111FP
