Hey guys,
First time FreeNAS (attempted) user here. I've booted into FreeNAS, but when it comes time to connect via the webGUI at the IP that is specified on the console page, my browser ends up timing out and FreeNAS freezes.
I've tried both the 64-bit and 32-bit versions.
I've tried setting network interfaces, resetting network interfaces, assigning gateways, not assigning gateways...
I've tried DHCP assigned IP and also assigning an IP statically (based on MAC address)via my router (Gargoyle firmware). Installing Ubuntu Server on the same computer allows me to connect with DHCP *or* statically assigned IP.
I'm trying this on a Toshiba Satellite C655D with an AMD E-350 processor.
I believe it may be a problem with the network adaptor - it's an Atheros AR8152 built in ethernet.
Googling the AR8152 gets me some threads from 2012, but it seems FreeBSD doesn't have a problem with AR8152 - at least, not recently.
Can anyone help me shed some light on the situation? FreeNAS seems perfect - theoretically - for my needs, and I don't really want to run Ubuntu Server for this undertaking.
Cheers,
Droz
