Can someone please help me figure out how to upgrade the drivers and firmware for my Dell R610 BCM5709 NIC? I'm baffled why it's so confusing on Dell's site. #lspci -nnk [root@server ~]# lspci -v | grep Ethernet -A 1 01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Inc. and subsidiaries NetXtreme II...

Hey folks, Would appreciate help on properly updating NIC drivers on an older Dell R610 running Ubuntu. Dell's site is utterly confusing and not really helpful. This is my output: root@none:~# lspci -v | grep Ethernet -A 1 01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Inc. and subsidiaries NetXtreme...
