Hello,
i have a fresh installed PVE 7.3 on my Supermicro X11DPi-NT Mainboard with 2x X722 NICs 10GB-T RJ-45 LOM (LAN on Manboard).
Sometimes the Adapter go down and lost Network for several seconds, then reconnect.

I have read about Problems with X722 Network Adapters.
There is a Solution, it has to Upgrade the NVM X722 Firmware to newer Version. (my Version is 3.33)

I have found a tutorial on how to update the firmware, but cant find the Firmware anywere. Wait for reply from Supermicro.

Is anyone here and can Provide the Firmware: 3.51 + 4.11 and 5.50 ? Thanks for Help

Hi! I also have issues with X722 NICs on X11DPi-NT MB, it would be great if someone could share the Firmware Update tool. Supermicro support haven't replied me yet. As far as I know, tools from Intel website are not compatible with onboard controllers on Supermicro motheboards, so there are few places to get the right tool.
