    @johnpoz: Yeah PPPOE not going to show you any sort of speed. Actually as I understand ppp speed can be limited and shown according to freebsd documentation for modems, but there is nothing that can be used as speed value for linked ethernet-virtual interfaces, may be only linked physical interface speed. Anyway this is just cosmetics and nothing else.

    @virgiliomi: @W4RH34D: Sounds awesome.  If they could only act as access points too! If you use Android-based devices, you can install the Sonos app on them and there's an advanced setting to allow Android devices to connect to the SonosNet mesh network as well. They'll only be devices on the network though, not full mesh nodes like the Sonos devices are. Don't expect super performance out of it though… streaming video while connected probably won't go too well. Right, it would be for business stuff.

    which was why I was hoping to configure pfsense to route all netflix traffic to WAN instead of the VPN Sorry, your explanation was a little vague and I thought you were trying to avoid being blocked when using foreign Netflix instead of local.  You would normally use policy routing via firewall rules to determine which WAN your traffic goes out.  You could have a rule on LAN such that all traffic from your TV's IP address is routed out the WAN gateway.  How do you currently have your config so that everything is going out the VPN?

    Well, kill the process. In System - Update - Update Settings, tick the Disable the automatic dashboard auto-update check checkbox and save. Stop browsing the package manager if your computer cannot handle it. There is already a bug open about the nonsensical perpetual package manager updates. https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/6782

    In your Firewall log, do not click the button shown with the red arrow or it will allow this IP and port on the interface it appeared. [image: EasyRule.png] [image: EasyRule.png_thumb]

    The fact that it also happens when strictly on LAN is telling.  Take pfSense out of the mix and connect directly.  Does the problem still happen?

    Based on my own experiences I wouldn't use mount_smbfs on pfSense, it's a stability hazard at best that you don't want to have on a security critical system.

    @Derelict: Or MoCA. I know mocca, but MoCA? "Mist over Canada" or "MoCA Montreal - Cognitive Assessment"? Probably not. Wait, got it: Multimedia over Coax Alliance - Wikipedia  ;)

    @Derelict: It has been time to upgrade off realtek for years. I am also curious about this as i just purchased a zotac ci232nano (realtek NICs) and have the dropping NIC issues with 2.3.2 P1. Should i downgrade? Or even bother if pfsense will not fix the compatibility issues in newer revisions? I don't want to be stuck on an old build forever.

    What does the switch care about rules in pfsense??  Switch is just layer 2, it sees packets come in 1 interface and based upon the dest mac, or broadcast sends it out other interfaces..  Are you going to use this switch as a router in layer 3 mode?? So there is few different ways you match up your vlans you create in your switch to the vlans you create on pfsense so that your packets go where you want them to go..  So your sending in all your vlans into pfsense via only 1 interface em1 (lan)… So you need to create your vlans in pfsense to match up with the vlan ID, which you have as 10,20,30.. So these vlans are all in addition to your normal LAN?  Or do you also have LAN native on the interface and then these 3 vlans are on top of that?  So for example maybe that is just going to use the default vlan 1 on your switch?? So you really have lan (em1) (vlan 1) but not tagged this is just native vlan VLAN10Design (em1 vlan id 10) VLAN20Storage (em1 vlan id 20) VLAN30Science (em1 vlan id 30) So for example here is my vlans.. They all sit on my em2 interface, and their tags match up with the tags in my switch..  But there is also a network that runs native without any tagging that is em2 (wlan) pfsense doesn't care about this tag.  But in my switch this vlan has tag of 20.. So you can tag all your traffic to pfsense and let it determine what traffic is in what network.  Or you can use native without any tagging and just create a new layer 2 network in your switch and pfsense doesn't know what this tag is.  Or you can do a combination where there is a untagged network on your parent interface, but there are also vlans on top of that with tags..
