why ROS 5.7 only support one port of 82571GB

RouterOS General
1

i checked all topics .

found same problem on 2006.

http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/intel-pro-1000-pt-dual-port-server-adapter/7059/1

Here is what I’ve found for Intel DUAL port Server Adapter PRO/1000MT

  1. You can only use 1 port for GIGABIT
  2. If you plug both port into Gigabit swicth, then speed down to 100 Mbps or stuck ( both port not working ).
  3. This is happen NOT only in MikroTik, but also in FreeBSD

My suggestion :

  1. DON’T BUY DUAL PORT INTEL SERVER ADAPTOR ( refund if you can and get exchange to 1 port )
  2. Get 1 port Intel Server Adaptor

So.. since I can’t refund the dual port, I use DUAL port with 1 port only for Gigabit connection

That’s from my experience… hope this help

If you have any problems with ethernet interfaces not recognized in RouterOS, generate and send supout.rif file to support@mikrotik.com

I have same problem about this card .

Correct Hardware Information

Intel PRO/1000 MT Dual Port Server Adapter
USE Intel 82546 Gigabit Controller
Intel Order Code : PWLA8492MT

I have 2 this card in one X86 server , ROS 5.7 mark them from ether3 to ether6 .

IF I config IP address only at ONE of Adapter with 2 Port (Ex ether3 and Ether4) . I got only ether3 can work . and if I also set IP at another Adapter port in my sever (Ex ether 5 and ether 6) , only ether6 can work . So I just can use ether3 and ether6 , not all 4 port can be use . And I try to connect with RB450G with ether3 + ether6 . I got only 100M access , not 1G .



Just Notice Intel product URL :

I am resurrecting this thread, since I am interested in one of these cards (Intel order code: PWLA8492MT)

4 years have passed and v6.33.3 is the latest RouterOS…
So… is there any progress regarding this card?
In other words: is it fully supported now?
