Check the ppp log, is it trying to connect? Any errors shown? Is the parent interface showing a connection? Which NIC is it? Steve

Got that. But after warmstart the same error is still present. And I also see more interfaces as cuaU0.0 (which should be the modem?!) [image: fiKBbPd.jpg] EDIT: OK, I was to fast. It works now, thank you! :)

Install bandwidthd, goto Services->Bandwidth and enable it on LAN. Wait a few minutes, click the Access Bandwidthd tab and the graphs should be there.

They are close to an RC build, so while they say you shouldn't use it for production purposes, it's getting very close to release.  Lots of stuff has been fixed, lots of new goodies added.  If you're new, I might recommend that you start off with the new base instead of using the much-older FreeBSD 8.3-based pfSense.

What are you trying to accomplish?  Pfsense would be meant to replace your soho router, yes it can be run in vm.  I run mine on a esxi host and works great for my whole network. You could then leverage your current wifi router as just an AP for your network.

5353 is mdns..  You sure that is chromecast??  I would think that is most likely some other apple type device on your wifi network.

Happy to help  ;)

Thanks allot! ;)

Thank you!

Excuse me sir, how to solved this problem (update windows with ssl bump squid3-dev)?  :)

Unless it's very low traffic you're going to need a syslog server of some sort then. Steve

Thanks for your help! I configure all as  your words but not lucky, dhcp not work. From wan net able ping to lan, ok. From client, i configure manually with ip 192.168.3.10 and gateway 192.168.3.2 (interface wan2 of pfsense), and work ok, is possible ping to lan and work internet. The problem is dhcp, not work and is active in pfsense (interface wan 2). Assing me ip generic: Log of pfsense register this: Nov 25 20:00:36 WAN_VODAFONE_4G Icon Reverse Resolve with DNS  Icon Easy Rule: Add to Block List 169.254.34.122:137 Icon Reverse Resolve with DNS  Icon Easy Rule: Pass this traffic 169.254.255.255:137 Any Ideas? I can´t to admin menu of Router. Thanks. Regards.

Exactly, these are real 'hardware' switches. They just have an open bootloader for the SoC that runs the management firmware so you can load an alternative if you so desire. Exactly like OpenWRT on a SOHO router just with an emphasis on switching and much much more powerful hardware.  ;) Makes me think that an OpenWRT switch might not be far off at all. Steve

If you are happy for (want) all devices to be able to talk to each other on a single LAN, then you do not need to have different actual interfaces. You can just assign static-mapped DHCP for each "known" device to put them in a particular piece of the 1 big subnet. Then leave the "unknown" guest devices in the ordinary DHCP pool. Then your rules can allow/block differently for the different parts of your 1 subnet. But that provides no real security - any guest can set an IP address themselves, rather than taking DHCP, and effective put themselves in a "more trusted" part of your subnet/rules. So you need to decide what is your internal known/trusted network, and what are guests and other public stuff. I suspect that you will want printers and other local network resources (NAS, your own file server…) on the trusted LAN along with your home computers, so they all just see each other. Many people would end up with: LAN - your own home computers, printers, NAS, file server, an AP for your home WiFi. Guest - and AP for your friends to use, with no (or very controlled) access to LAN and more generous internet access DMZ - anything you have that provides public services (public web site...) WAN - 1 or more actual uplinks to your ISP/s So you might end up with 3,4... interfaces on pfSense. If you have that many physical NICs, then easy. Otherwise you need a VLAN switch also. Then pick some private address space for each of LAN, Guest, DMZ...

For some reason , i try package install from http://ftp.freebsd.org/ , Folloing directory and syslo-ng install safely , to not occur pfsense crashe and stopping. For appropriate advice , finnaly replace my router to PFSense box. Thanks for all reply. Will ask if that also do not know.Best regards.

I found the issue. It turned out to be a bad switch. There was an unmanaged ethernet switch between the modem and the WAN, I replaced the switch and haven't had a drop since.

You can't set the media type on a PPPoE interface (or any type of virtual interface) you have to set it on the parent interface. If you don't have that available because it isn't assigned just add it as an new interface and set it as type 'none'. Then set the media type there. What is the actual hardware the WAN is connected to? Are you sure it's not forced to 100Mbps, have you tried connecting to it with something else? Steve

Those are both FreeNAS issues. The first looks like some problem with jails perhaps? It's trying to rename the virtual Ethernet pair and can't for whatever reason. The second issue maybe DNS related. Read this: https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/4027 Have you recently updated FreeNAS? You will probably have more luck on the FreeNAS forum solving those, though many here run FreeNAS. Steve

Wanted to say thank you for this post, I was struggling to figure out why our new android devices suddenly couldn't load facebook on wifi, and it was draining our batteries trying. I set it to "none" and off I went. Now I will go back and set up IPv6 locally since my ISP does support IPv6 (I have it getting an address on the WAN side, so I'll setup IPv6 on the LAN). Thanks again!
