Support for Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE).Fully optimized for Yosemite and Mavericks (64bit architecture) but should work with Mountain Lion and Lion too, provided you build from source with the 10.8 or 10.7 SDK.Makes use of the chip's TCP Segmentation Offload (TSO) feature with IPv4 and IPv6 in order to reduce CPU load while sending large amounts of data (disabled due to hardware bugs).Support for TCP/IPv6 and UDP/IPv6 checksum offload.TCP, UDP and IPv4 checksum offload (receive and transmit).Only small packets are copied on reception because creating a copy is more efficient than allocating a new buffer. Support for multisegment packets relieving the network stack of unnecessary copy operations when assembling packets for transmission.

That's why I dropped support for a number of older NICs. My intention was not to replace hnak's AppleIntelE1000e.kext completely but to deliver best performance and stability on recent hardware. Support requests here on Github will be ignored! Project DescriptionĪ few days before Christmas I started my latest project, a new driver for recent Intel onboard LAN controllers. Prebuilt binaries can also be found there. In case you have further questions, need support or want to submit a problem report. OS X driver for Intel onboard LAN Support
