Unusual, but it happens. Some devices don't play well with certain others. In those cases, you're generally always fine with the switch in between. Where that works at all, it'll generally stay stable.

just a standard client great ill try to set it up then :) thanks again

@sherkas: You should be able to connect directly to the TOR network or just open required ports. I know this reply isnt too helpful. Thank you, but I tried following tutorial more without result. https://turbofuture.com/computers/How-to-Set-Up-a-Tor-Proxy-Server-on-pfSense http://www.malwaretech.com/2015/08/creating-ultimate-tor-virtual-network.html Not install.

I've been going round and round in circles trying to get my Sure GPS to work. No matter how many times I set the speed to 9600 in the config screen the system logs always say it opened the serial port at 4800, which obviously doesn't work. If I tell it to connect at 19200 then the system logs say it opened the serial port at 19200. If I go to Custom GPS and set it to 9600 and save when the page reloads it will still be showing 4800. I even tried setting it to speed 16 directly in the config.xml and reloading the page but when the page saves it still resets the serial port to 4800. If it helps - the page shows 4800 has a value of 0, and 9600 has a value of 15, whenever the page is saved with 9600 selected it saves the value 15 not 16 in the config.xml file. I hope I have provided enough information. System Version: 2.3.1-RELEASE-p1 (i386) built on Wed May 25 14:53:12 CDT 2016 FreeBSD 10.3-RELEASE-p3 Andy EDIT: OK I managed to get it working by forcing it to post speed value 16 by editing the page live in Chrome. services_ntpd_gps.php needs line 281 fixing. [0 => '4800', 15 => '9600', 32 => '19200', 48 => '38400', 64 => '57600', 80 => '115200'] should be [0 => '4800', 16 => '9600', 32 => '19200', 48 => '38400', 64 => '57600', 80 => '115200']

The following documents on the wiki may be helpful in assisting you to fix the problem: https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Low_Throughput_Troubleshooting https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Tuning_and_Troubleshooting_Network_Cards Also, it might help to know what network adapters you're using.

Hi, Thank you to all who respond to my plea. I followed your instructions and am now receiving mail. I had not read as far into the manual as I should have and set up manual rules without port forwarding. So, RTFM in future my lad. Thanks and kind reagrds, jB  8)

Bridge is functionally equivalent to a switch but of course when you have a filtering bridge there's also the possibility to filter the traffic. The hosts that are on the same side of the bridge can talk to each other without going trough the bridge. However, all broadcast traffic still traverses the bridge regardless, for example ARP naturally must be able to do this to reach any host on the same "logical" network segment.

This topic should contain the solution for any configuration restores which left 'ghost' packages: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=112151.0

Gateway logs, lots of WAN_DHCP, WAN_DHCPv6, Sendto error: 55/65s [image: gatewaylog.JPG] [image: gatewaylog.JPG_thumb]

The AP's are not set for multiple SSID, so the employees would connect via one set of AP's and the guests via another. Ah, ok that was not really clear to me in the opening post from you. Then the Ports need not to be "tagged" with one SSID only. Also the pfsense handles the DHCP for both subnets Yes.

The graphs looks nice… I wonder if you'll have a way to specify the "First Day Of The Month" for calculations to begin?  That would be a VERY important feature for people who needs to monitor their monthly caps. And backup/restore of the data.

Excellent, thank you!  :)

Well you are not alone!  I have the same ECS kbn-I 2100 motherboard and (2x4GB ram) and a dual port intel 1Gb NIC.  This setup is NOT stable to say the least.  The post above states that this motherboard/chipset is not supported though the post below made me purchase it in the first place: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=69969.0 In any case my WAN seems to go down randomly and is plagued with kernel panics and reboots.  The poster mentions disabling ACPI (but really doesn't say where) since this can be done in pfsense and in the MB BIOS.  Disabling ACPI in the bios does nothing, however disabling ACPI in pfsense causes system NOT to boot.  Since this motherboard was only like 20 bucks I really don't care but now looking to see about a different MB since it appears this one is not it.  If anyone has any info please update with your experience. Thanks

@slu: Can someone explain me why my Out is the double of the In traffic? Because twice the number of bits are egressing than are ingressing on the interface.

I also just tried: System: Advanced: Firewall and NAT, called Static route filtering – Bypass firewall rules for traffic on the same interface. Still no go
