    @martin085 said in Stop interface reassignment on reboot: It seems really dumb behavior Correct. Using USB NIC's can be described as such ;) Hardware interfaces HAVE to be present at boot so the system can apply known firewall rules and other settings on it. See it as security related. Like : I find a firewall, slide in my USB NIC into one of the port, and gain access to the system ... Software based interfaces are somewhat different - they can be created on the fly after booting up (like OpenVPN interfaces). I recall you can add to this file : /boot /loader.conf.local some instructions to have your USB NIC activated even when it is not there during boot. Use the forum-search function to find them.

    This doesn't seem pfSense related. Moving to general/off-topic. Steve

    @vielfede said in Cron does not work specifing time: it is a VM [2.4.4-RELEASE][admin@pfsLazzarini.localdomain]/root/scripts: date Fri May 8 00:09:26 CEST 2020 Being in a VM could mean the time is even worse than usual. Also you're on 2.4.4, should be on 2.4.5. A couple other things: Make sure the Hypervisor clock is OK, and if this is ESX, (a) make sure that ESX is up-to-date and a current supported version (e.g. 6.7), (b) make sure the VM hardware support has been updated to the highest level supported by the hypervisor, (c) make sure the OS type configured in the VM settings matches the pfSense version installed, and (d) make sure that Open-VM-Tools is installed and up-to-date.

    Sure (regarding ICMP) - it is not relevant here as it is not dependent on the source network - they just block it outright, I should have excluded that info as it is not important. I did not think about that - I indeed do have a dynamic DNS host name for my IP... How could I have forgotten that! Thanks for clearing up my D'OH moment.

    @kejianshi said in Took the Solar Plunge: I didn't even look those batteries up - They came from walmart which is pretty much all I needed to know… http://upsinverterinfo.com/exide-inva-tubular-battery-models-available-in-market.html These also work well if you need something you can easily order from napa or auto zone: http://www.carid.com/optima/optima-bluetop-marine-battery-4309821.html http://www.marine.hr/webshop/eng/products/battery-exide-dual-agm-50ah-orbital-deep-cycle-18.html But having an actual solar battery is even better: http://www.wholesalesolar.com/products.folder/battery-folder/rolls-s550.html Any of the batteries listed above and especially the last one will allow serious daily cycling for years. here's how a homemade solar panel works.. https://batteryforinverter.com/how-does-a-homemade-solar-panel-work/ Or...  You can buy a new bank of batteries from walmart every 6 months. I strongly agree with kejianshi! Solar is one of the most affordable and sustainable forms of energy today! #SaveEarth

    Just the BIOS not the full android firmware. That's what it looks like from what I'm reading, yes. Of course I've never tested it. And flashing the BIOS is potentially dangerous etc. Steve
