    My guess is that the USB NIC is the main suspect, I've yet to see one that works well on FreeBSD.

    @robi: @jdillard: There is an export to CSV Anybody has an idea what are the values in the first column? The next columns are "packet loss", "delay average", ""delay std. dev.", but the first column header is missing. I was guessing it's Unix timestamp, but it's not, because a calculation from that number gives errorneous results. I need to present a log to my boss, and I can't decode timestamps to absolute time values… It's UNIX time with three extra digits on the end for sub-second precision (not that RRD really needs it…)

    @iTestAndroid: What do you mean? NAS is connected to the pfSense firewall and thats the way I want it to be, so data in NAS will be secured and I will have some good controls over it's network and its activities and who's accessing it via pfSense. Do you mean to say that the NAS is on a separate network than your internal users? If the NAS is on the same network as your users, then all traffic forwards at the switch level and shouldn't be affected by pfSense.

    Thanks for your reply JorgeOliveira, i saw the post you are linking and i will try it, im just thinking that it must be a bug. The firewall did not have internet access when i upgraded it and i think that may have resulted it this situation.

    @peter808: The solution does not work if u have enabled "two-factor-authentification" (so we did) in your Google-Apps-account. The "apps-password" we have generated do not work, showing "Error: 535-5.7.8 Username and Password not accepted.". We tried several different generated apps-passwords, no luck. Any hints? Hi I also have two  factor authentication enabled but unable to send email. I disabled it and enabled access to less secure apps now while m able to relay emails but all are landing in my Gmail address not in mailbox which I specified in  Notification E-Mail address. No email is being sent there. I tried multiple addresses.

    @jwt: We invest tens of thousands of man hours every year developing pfSense.  Do you remember the complaints about how pfSense was always lagging the FreeBSD releases (by a lot)?  Did you notice that we're running FreeBSD 11-ALPHA5 here? Yes I remember.  I was one of the complainers.  Thank you for picking up the pace.

    Gateway IP is automatically assigned when "dynamic" word is written. Go System>Routing New , choose OPT1 and put your gateway there. Or go to Interfaces>OPT1 and put your gateway. if that didn't work try to put static IP for OPT1 interface not DHCP

    If you are using google chrome, just try different browser or update pfSense to the latest version 2.3.2_1 which is released yesterday. 2.3.2_1 Features & Changes Worked around a Chrome bug with regular expression parsing of escaped characters within character sets. Fixes "Please match the requested format" on recent Chrome versions.

    The Virtualization forum is here. what should be the ip, what subnets and what rules. Use any other private network subnet.  192.168.2.1/24 for OPT1 interface.  Don't forget to add an Allow All rule since OPT interfaces do not get any firewall rules by default. How can debug this ? If two different clients on the same network behave differently then you need to look at the misbehaving client.  Local firewall on your OMV perhaps?

    if Squidguard is not able to handle too many requests due to performance or settings issues Strange.  squidguard has no notion of child threads or anything since it's called on-demand by squid.  If squid doesn't have enough children, then processing should slow down but not just completely ignore the calls to squidguard to process the current URL. Regardless, this can be addressed by increasing the number of child threads in squid's Advanced Options - Integrations: url_rewrite_children 16 Bump it to a higher number if you have slow processing caused by lots of users.

    It was not written by anyone involved with the project, and has generally poor quality overall. On top of that, it is now very, very out of date. Search around the forum you'll find some older discussions with not too many kind words about it.
