NIC detected, no flow/traffic 6.5.0 Update 1 (Build 7388607)

I have an AMD Ryzen 1800x on Asus Prime B350 Motherboard.

 

I initially had issues with the onboard Realtek Gb LAN, i tried the community vib, searched forums, eventually found a workaround of shutting down the esxi, cut off the power from the MB, then powering it back again.

 

Since this isn't practical, i bought an Intel E1G42ET  (supposedly supported) and chucked in on the 2nd PCIe x16 slot (the rest of the slot empty of course). esxi detect the two nics (driver igb), but:

 

1. There is no flow from the NIC/s

2. NIC will show Up - 1000 Full when connected, but when disconnected, will still show Up with speed of 65535 and Full duplex?!

 

any idea where i should start looking ?

 

Cheers

 

[Edit-1]

To confirm the issue isn't hardware, i booted a live Ubuntu and tried the 3 nics, all works like a charm!

 

[Edit-2]

Driver currently used by ESXi is "igb"

   Module: igb

   Module File: /usr/lib/vmware/vmkmod/igb

   License: GPL

   Version: Version 5.0.5.1, Build: 4564106, Interface: 9.2 Built on: Oct 26 2016

   Build Type: release

   Provided Namespaces:

   Required Namespaces: com.vmware.driverAPI@9.2.3.0, com.vmware.vmkapi@v2_3_0_0

   Containing VIB: net-igb

   VIB Acceptance Level: certified

 

however, listing VIBs containing "igb" would yeild:

igbn                           0.1.0.0-15vmw.650.1.36.7388607        VMW      VMwareCertified     2018-02-05

net-igb                        5.0.5.1.1-5vmw.650.0.0.4564106        VMW      VMwareCertified     2018-02-05

 

is the system using the right driver ?
