Really you would need to be logging the console output when it reboots to see what is happening there. You might be able to enable a serial console, set that as the primary console and log that output. It would no doubt involve some fun and games in HyperV though.... Steve

@5555 Maybe this here VDSL2 - Parameter für 1&1 can help a little bit?

Well at least you have diagnosis and a fix. Not much else you can do there but swap out the card. Steve

@kiokoman Thanks. I didn't think so but they were showing intermingled like that so I wasn't sure.

Those are on the same interface? 100.100.100.0/24 and 192.168.1.0/24? That should work but you will need to add firewall rules to allow that traffic to pass. If that is your LAN for example and your LAN interface is 100.100.100.1 then firewall rules using the default LANnet as source will not catch traffic from the other subnet. Add additional pass rules for 192.168.1.0/24 specifically if required. You may also need additional outbound NAT rules for it to get internet access. Steve

@asphalt3 said in Slow Download Speed virtualbox pfsense: Once I login to the Netgear web gui from the host and look at the IPs in "DHCP clients" section theres 2. 1 for the host and 1 for pfsense (on the VM). Could that be the issue? Probably not. It depends how the hypervisor is configured but if the NIC is bridged to the pfSense VM then both that and the host would pull an IP from the upstream router. Running double NAT to some VM(s) behind pfSense in the virtual environment is not ideal but it should work fine. Steve

But unless he puts 3rd party on it - he is not going to have such control in the soho native firmware. He might have a check box to block or allow wireless access to the gui.

I'd be looking at something else. https://forum.netgate.com/topic/133996/time-to-remove-growl Think it's been removed from 2.5 https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/8821 ?

@cheapie408 yes, HAPROXY is just a proxy, a super powerful and awesome proxy, but, only a proxy.

I'll have to double check, but I'm usually in a rush to just get things working again. In the mean time I've followed the workaround you linked to. It makes sense and I think that's what is happening in my case too. Thanks so much!

https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/book/nat/troubleshooting.html Post screens of your NAT rule(s) and WAN rules, with any public details (like WAN address) obscured.

I have this problem as well. My Growl server is listening for notifications and other applications work just fine. The bug was not fixed in 2.4 release (validated). I believe more people than you think use Growl. If you have a proposed fix, I am happy to help QA this. This bug is quite old - can we please have some attention on this?

Done.

@johnpoz @JKnott @akuma1x I will try your suggestion, didn't think about doing that that way!

@KOM thank you very much for your response.

@xhivo97 said in Option to Hot Plug (some) Interfaces: Hi, Thank you for the reply. I opened a feature request here. I managed to make it work good enough so that I can use it. Have been reading the source code and managed to make some php scripts that do what I want. This creates the interface: Runs on boot-up and when the USB modem is plugged in (using devd). <?php require_once("config.inc"); require_once("interfaces.inc"); if (does_interface_exist(ue0)) { if (!is_array($config['interfaces']['opt100'])) { $config['interfaces']['opt100'] = array(); } $config['interfaces']['opt100']['if'] = 'ue0'; $config['interfaces']['opt100']['enable'] = 'true'; $config['interfaces']['opt100']['descr'] = 'WAN2'; $config['interfaces']['opt100']['blockpriv'] = 'on'; $config['interfaces']['opt100']['blockbogons'] = 'on'; $config['interfaces']['opt100']['ipaddr'] = 'dhcp'; $config['interfaces']['opt100']['ipaddrv6'] = 'dhcp6'; $config['interfaces']['opt100']['dhcp6-ia-pd-len'] = '0'; print_r($config['interfaces']); write_config($config); } sleep(2); interface_dhcp_configure(ue0); ?> This deletes the interface: I included it in /etc/rc.bootup so that the interface gets deleted on boot. <?php require_once("config.inc"); if (isset($config['interfaces']['opt100'])) { unset($config['interfaces']['opt100']); print_r($config['interfaces']); write_config($config); } ?> This script runs when the USB modem is plugged in and on boot: #!/bin/sh sleep 10 logger usb_modeswitch Changing Modem Mode usb_modeswitch -v 0x12d1 -p 0x1f01 -c /usr/local/share/usb_modeswitch/12d1:1f01 sleep 5 php /path/to/create.php I tested this and seems to work really good. Do you mind to share what 4g mdem your using ??

If they did that they broke NAT-T and everything NAT-T is supposed to do. Wouldn't surprise me though. If they did that they might as well just use port 500.

In the OS, the root and admin accounts are setup using the same credentials. So you just connect with root@hostname using the password for the admin account.

@Gertjan said in Custom Setup Question: @asphalt3 said in Custom Setup Question: settings do i have to change in the host's OS A PC (device) can have many NIC's, like several physical RJ45, Wifi adapters and virtual NIC's. Up to you to choose the one you need. I'm not using Virtual Box myself, but surely you could find some info on the net about how to set things up. If not, there is a Hyper-V example in the pfSense doc, you could use it as a guide. Removing the upstream router : you should analyse the WAN settings of this Netgear device. Use the same settings on the WAN interface of pfSense and you'll be fine. For example, it is was DHCP, use the DHCP (client) on the pfSense WAN device. Okay, thank you!
