The card was a simple solution, cheap and easy to install and works perfectly with OPNSense. All setup and running and so much better. Review: works with proxmox and opnsense - Works with proxmox pass-through to a vm router / opnsense. Can't comment on the performance as i only have 70Mbit internet but processor usage is almost 0 while running a speed test so something is working well behind the scene and i assume it supports IOSRV for virtual environments. Not noticed an increase in power usage on my hypervisor either so that's a bonus. ## Features - Equipped with original Intel 82576 controller chip which supports Intelligent Offloads and make the servers more stable. Compare to Intel E1G42ET. - Compatible with Windows Server 2003/ 2008/ 2012, Windows7/8/10/Visa/XP, Linux, VMware ESX.

Thanks and best regards, Belinda **Q: Do the 2 physical ports appear as 2 separate interfaces in the os - i.e. can i have 2 separate ip addresses and route between them (unix)?** A: Dear customer, Thanks for your question. Yes, you can have 2 seperate ip addresses. What do you mean " route between them “ ？ Usually, this has nothing to do with the hardware network card, you should check this with the system. Hope our answer helps. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for OPNSense Box *by C***F on 7 January 2023* Having had enough of using awful ISP provided routers, I decided to use an old Dell Optiplex to build a router based of OPNSense so needed an additional network port in the system.

Very easy to find a driver and get it installed. Useful to have the option to use this as high or low profile when installing. Great Gigabit speeds and pretty good price. ## Frequently Bought Together - 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Converged Network Adapter (NIC) with Intel 82576 Chip | Ethernet PCI Express Network Card | Dual RJ45 Copper Ports | PCI Express 2.0 X1 | Compare to Intel E1G42ET - Crucial RAM 32GB Kit (2x16GB) DDR4 3200MHz CL22 (or 2933MHz or 2666MHz) Desktop Memory CT2K16G4DFRA32A, Green --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/50314813-10-100-1000mbps-gigabit-ethernet-converged-network-adapter-nic-intel](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/50314813-10-100-1000mbps-gigabit-ethernet-converged-network-adapter-nic-intel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-26*
