    @WolfgangDomi said in Wireguard between FritzBox and iPhone only works with Apple Store WiFi: As soon as I use WiFi in an Apple Store it works fine! The next time you visit a Store, do a 'trace'. I'm pretty sure you won't find any local 'hops', and go straight to a Apple head quarters in the western part of world. From there, a connection to Germany works fine. Because : and these are my thoughts : every Store uses a VPN directly to 'headquarters'. Apple negotiated of course will local authorities that this VPN is allowed, works fine, and has no issues. So, no wonder it works fine in these stores. Or all places are ... usable with 'restrictions' ? Again : I'm not working for Apple. Don't know nothing about how things are done in that part of the world.

    I am way late to this thread... but I am so, incredibly, over netgate at this point. Trying to unbrick my SG1100 for the 4th time? 5th time? I am litearlly 0/5 on physical devices, every single one has bricked itself at some point, 2 of which needed RMA's. For the final time (getting a device ready for sale as I have moved entirely off netgate), the latest OS needs an internet connection to flash from a putty terminal?!?! This is in-sane. For anyone reading this in the future, just dump your netgate devices - the level of frustration these have caused me, my family, and my poor friends I recomended them to is unreal. /rant Netgate - do better. This is a disgrace to networking infrastructure.

    @netboy not network ports, physical port.. [image: 1767379409340-physical.jpg] This is what makes it a map - tells you what is connected to what.. See port gi2 of my sg300-10 is connected to port gi8 of my sg250-08 edit: see on my unifi flex mini [image: 1767379578606-mini.jpg] It lists the devices it sees on its port 1, and also that my printer is connected to its port 4, it lists multiple devices on port 1, because that is its uplink to nvr switch, where those cameras are connected.

    @mhab12 Thank you I may let him do it as far as the continuous/real-time definition updates you mentioned I have the paid snort and pretty good feeds on my pfblocker that is updated hourly so those threats are updated regular I like pfsense but I cant micro manage the tech guy and he knows Palo Alto if we do switch if nothing else that Netgate 7100 unit will make a nice addition to my home lab.

    Don't use WiFi would be my first recommendation. But what sort of traffic are you looking to optimise? Optimise for throughput? Latency?

    I have a WRT3200ACM running OpenWRT. Hard to recommend it though as the WiFi seems very unstable. I've never seen it stay up reliably across several versions.

    SOLVED. Okay, we have the VMware figured out, Linux kernel issue on myside. For burning to USB, I discovered an update to rufus (v4.11) which I downloaded and ran. Burnt to USB 2.0 without error. In windows, when we look at the USB drive contents, there is nothing there. Disk Manager shows the partitions accordingly, so I assigned a drive letter to the USB stick and now can see the root of the stick - not a lot there, but that's a Windows thing. On one of our ubuntu servers I could also see the parts natively. So that told me that everything burnt properly. Booted our potential pfSense system via USB and Voila - magic happened and installed. So, my take away here is to check for things like software updates (rufus) and of course pay closer attention to the OS requirements for pfSense (i.e. the OS ver). Thanks Anitbiotic, you set me on the right troubleshooting course.

    @johnpoz Just thought of something. Create the profile and import it onto the iPhone partner like normal. Then after you 'accept' or 'allow' the profile from Settings, that's maybe when it gets 'transferred' over to the watch. You'll know that this might work if you don't see 'incompatible profile' when you tap the emailed attachment on the iPhone.

    @Duncantr The mesh AP system they were using appears to be the culprit behind it.. Once they set up an old Linksys WAP in their office the texts began coming through. Not sure what that system was as they handled that part themselves. I was just their network guy. Thanks for the response! Much appreciated.
