    @stephenw10 This is my final note since it seem you will always look at this as an endpoint. It doesn't appear, it actually is, the facts are the facts. Still, moderator usually have a way to remove posts and ban single users, not just the entire herd, or at least the ones use. Perhaps those are more advance, or perhaps netgate forums lack that functionality. I never said negate took this issue lightly, I was just looking for some feedback. I have seen this process many times and for the looks of it, pfsense CE is very much in maintenance mode. Just because netgate wants to be politically correct does not mean it is not. The fact are there and they are fallowing the same path as others did. Again, this subject is just becoming redundant and it is affecting other users in the forum.

    Just for fun, there are 2^64 IPv6 addresses in a /64 IPv6 subnet - that is: 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 There are 3,153,600 seconds in a year. Let's say your nmap can scan 1,000,000 (1 million) addresses per second, just to be ambitious. So it will take 18,446,744,073,709 seconds, which is 5,849,424 years. Hmmm - I don't think I want to wait that long just to find the IPv6 address of my lost device.

    ha! Many of us are already married. We always accept a free $beverage though.  :D The Gold Member "meetups" are the monthly Hangouts we have that are generally like a mini training session or us showing off a particular feature or methodology. Eventually we'll run out of topics though! We want to have some of them be Q&A sessions as well but the fear is that people will treat them as "fix my firewall" sessions and not a Q&A to benefit everyone. It may work if we have everyone submit some brief questions beforehand so we can have plenty of choices and time to research.

    Most of the conce[ts still apply.  There will be be GUI changes and some other stuff like Unbound but I would think 85% is the same.

    I'd really drop any forwarding. Unbound + DNSSEC. There's also this 0x20 draft - patch for pfSense available here until 2.2.1 is out.

    Help requested on interesting networking challenge (vpn, nat, etc).

    @kejianshi: The ideal solution would be to use something like a hardware wireless client that also has several ethernet adapters that you can plug your cameras into. Why are you wireless only?  Are you double NATed? (sorry - pic didn't load at first) Looks like your VPN server is in the wrong place to make this happen unless its a bridged network? The VPN server is at my local site.  So, I guess technically a site-to-site setup would work, but would require another pfSense box on hand and in the same cabinet.  Then I would need a small private LAN for the Windows PC and the Camera Recorder. I am single NAT'ed by the 4G <-> Wifi unit, which is my only access to the outside world (internet).  To solve the "no wifi on the video box" problem, I can share the wifi internet on my Windows PC, which then becomes double NAT'd.  I don't think that is a problem if I could VPN client out of that NAT system into my local pfsense server, as it would tunnel through both NATs I assume. I am trying to achieve this without additional hardware, the best I have come up with is a Raspberry pi in a bridge mode, but with a VPN Client connection included that "dials home" to the home office. This, plus VPN connection: https://rbnrpi.wordpress.com/project-list/wifi-to-ethernet-adapter-for-an-ethernet-ready-tv/

    .sfw,.flv  extensions would only throttle loading the video players, but not the video stream. I wonder if you can throttle videos without just throttling sites.
