    Go to SSH shell and run squidclient -p 3128 mgr:info Look at the Median Service Times.  Look for something that stands out, like a DNS lookup times in the 1-10+ second range.

    Then you don't have any unassigned interfaces available for assignment so the button doesn't appear.

    Might it be you are mixing some things up here? pfSense is a full blown, enterprise grade router/firewall that runs on most any standard PC-based hardware. It has a WebGUI for configuration but by no means is it a replacement GUI for your DSL router. Given the feature set of this software and your statement that your "PLDT my web configuration is not so easy to use", chances are, that pfSense is overcharging your current capabilities. Expect a steep learning curve at least.

    @doktornotor: LAN net? That is NOT correct. Thanks for the hint. After changing the "LAN net" values to "OPT1 net", everything started working. Thank you again, for helping a network noob out!

    Hi I am not using multiport NICs. I am attaching the Mbuf graph for the week. Kernel Value is kern.ipc.nmbclusters="0" as per /boot/loader.conf and sysctl output is kern.ipc.nmbclusters: 26584 Looking forward further guidance. Thanks, Pd [image: MBuf.png] [image: MBuf.png_thumb]

    It's capable of significantly more than that. Do you have to force speed and duplex on your WAN? Those Realtek NICs aren't capable of doing so (hardware issue). If not, it may just be that those NICs and your cable modem don't get along, in which case putting a switch between the WAN and cable modem probably would resolve.

    One more is always better.  They're cheap.  If you don't need 3 go with 2.

    Not quite.  You create your wpad.dat and proxy.pac files on a web server (you can use pfSense for this if it's running in HTTP mode, HTTPS doesn't work for this).  You then create an entry in your DNS for wpad that points to the webserver.  Then you set all clients to autodiscover the proxy. https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/WPAD_Autoconfigure_for_Squid You can search online for example wpad.dat files so you can see how the javascript inside can redirect based on source or destination.

    Which pfSense version are you running? If it's 2.2 are you using the DNS forwarder or resolver? What error is given on sites you can't access? Have you checked this: https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Unable_to_Access_Some_Websites Steve

    Or set up a syslog server and log to that. https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Full_Install_and_NanoBSD_Comparison Log files are not retained across reboots
