unstable connection pfSense GW

I installed a pfSense firewall at a remote office. The connection is incredibly unstable. We can ping the gateway through OpenVPN and get 50% to 80% packet loss.

I am able to log in to pfSense remotely for about 10 - 20 seconds at a time, then have to wait a few minutes or longer to try again.

pfSense is running on Netgate’s 4200. It is installed in the place of a TPlink gateway that did not have any connection issues.

It seems like there is a configuration issue, possibly with the interface or gateway settings.

LSI MegaRAID - setup not available during boot

I installed an LSI 9361-8i RAID controller in a supermicro X11SPA-TF

This setup runs ESXi
I have the intel VROC enabled with two NVME drives configured on it

I cannot configure the controller. - There is no setup screen during boot. Its just missing
A green blinking light comes on the controller and the heat sink gets hot.
It is plugged into 4 samsung 20TB hdd

Tried with and without drives plugged into controller.
Tried with legacy boot and UEFI
Disabled quiet boot
Tried with CSM Disabled. (although, I don’t actually know what this feature does)

Tried it in a different PCI slot.

I’m out of ideas and working against a deadline. Can anyone help?
