Only the 3B.
Older models, up to the first RPi3 still have a 100Mb/s NIC.
I just happen to have an RPi3 and I'd really love to convert it to 
FreeBSD once 12.x is stable enough.




BTW, I also use fxp interfaces a lot, but that's just because I have 
several of them around: no use spending a few Euros for faster cards if 
they are going to be used for ADSL lines.

Then I have an old "hot-spare" computer that has an onboard FastEthernet 
NIC... I'll have to check which one it is and if support for it is being 
dropped.
Or... I could insert another spare fxp there too :)



Seriously, I'd be disappointed if the yet-to-come-to-stable support for 
my Raspberry was deprivated of its NIC driver.
Other than that, on the amd64 side, I'll live with this (if I have to).
