PVE8 Intel I350-T4 NIC driver issues

[jeremysherriff]

Really frustrating to see this is still an issue, I've got no idea how I'm going to move forward. It seems I need kernel 6.8.x to move my Ubuntu LXCs up to 24.04 LTS but no working NICs on 6.8 - I keep having to revert to pinning 6.5.x.

Ugghhh

I had no issues with an older XPEnology and the based loader. And there are no issues with unsing ESXi 8.0 Update 3.

But after updating the loader of XPEnology to a newer version the same issue happens. I had also these issues with XCP-NG that I tested earlier. Regarding Proxmox I tested with the newest available igb driver but had no success.

With the other onboard NIC on my Supermicro X10SLM-F board, an i217 using the e1000e driver there are no issues.

Because it looks like that not all i210 NICs have this issue I come to the conclusion that this issue is relatetd to a correlation of the X10 board, the new linux kernel and the igb driver which doesn't exist with older linux kernels.
