It could be that the network driver that is needed is not loaded.
NOTE: Some drivers, such as if_igb is nowadays compiled into the kernel, so not needed as a module, so this will not appear in the list.
So even if the driver is not seen, this does not necessarily mean this is the problem.
Try the following drivers:
Load the em driver as a module at boot time by placing the following line in /boot/loader.conf.
if_em_load="YES"
NOTE: There are other tunables too.
Then reboot and see if that makes a difference.
It may be that the igp driver is not loaded.
The igb driver supports Gigabit Ethernet adapters based on the Intel 82575 and 82576 controller chips:
WARNING: The igb driver is often complied into the FreeNAS kernel so these next steps might not work.
If this does not work then just comment out the loading of the “igp” driver within /boot/loader.conf file.
Place the following line in /boot/loader.conf:
if_igb_load="YES"
NOTE: There are other tunables too.
NOTE: You might need to reboot to be certain the driver is loaded.
You could also try to load it manually:
kldload if_igb
Check if the driver is loaded

kldstat reports that if_igb isn't loaded, so it must be compiled in.
