If you only have two NICs, you can buy this cheap USB NIC one [from Amazon](TODO) as your third. I've confirmed it works in my setup. It is compatible with FreeBSD 11.1 and I didn't have to install anything to get it working. Also, don't worry about the poor performance of USB NICs. This third NIC will only send/recieve a few packets periodicaly to authenticate your Router Gateway. The rest of your traffic will utilize your other (and much faster) NICs.

If you only have two NICs, you can buy this cheap USB 100Mbps NIC [from Amazon](https://amzn.to/2P0yn8k) as your third. It has the Asix AX88772 chipset, which is supported in FreeBSD with the [axe](https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=axe&sektion=4) driver. I've confirmed it works in my setup. The driver was already loaded and I didn't have to install or configure anything to get it working. Also, don't worry about the poor performance of USB or 100Mbps NICs. This third NIC will only send/recieve a few packets periodicaly to authenticate your Router Gateway. The rest of your traffic will utilize your other (and much faster) NICs.
