    SOLVED! After opening a support contract with Netgate, my problems were solved in short order. They had me send my config file to them and emailed a response with a few minutes. Thanks to all who responded. Bart

    That value is unused as far as I know. It's an ugly message but it does nothing. That said it looks like a simple enough fix. Open a bug report. Or a pull request. Steve

    @freek_box said in Ping on name not working: when I trie to do a ping on it from the VPS it says: Name or service unknown: ping mirror1.freepbx.org/modules/packages/pm2/pm2-16.0.8.tgz.gpg You cannot ping a file name, but only a host name or an IP address. So you can at best ping mirror1.freepbx.org

    Those are just local broadcast/multicast things, normal for it to do on the network segment. Not indicative of a problem. It's how it finds other devices on the network and vice versa.

    @heper I just would like to squeeze every bit of performance. I'm running suricata, pfblocker and AdGuard Home inside my pfSense. I think I was able to bring back the bursting experience by making sure all offloadings are disabled and leaving to default, parameters that impact security. The advise found in the link above I think is so strict. Speed is very stable now and it's bursting to ny subscribed speed

    If you add a dyndns entry to it you will be notified when that changes. For a failover group that will show when it fails over.

    I just found an old email about this thread and had forgotten about it because once you read an email, it's no longer highlighted. I felt I should come back to close it. The problem was unrelated to pfsense completely. What it was is that I had a test SIP system on another network using the same ITSP. When it would register with the ITSP, it would break registrations from the second SIP server, the one I was actually using now. Once I shut down the original, everything started working again. Sorry it took so long to come back and explain this and thank you for helping me.

    @magikmark it shouldn't as those have to all originate from OUTSIDE your network, not inside.

    @stephenw10 said in Supported CPU C-States: Mmm, @mvikman's CPU must be very lightly used. Anything I've ever tried that on looks more like your output there, mostly in C1. LOL yeah, it's just my home router and it's got a i5-6500, just haven't had time to dabble with pfblocker and such things yet @mrsunfire No, that was the only line I added. Though I have PowerD set to Adaptive instead of HiAdaptive because HiAdaptive doesn't seem let CPU to throttle speed lower MHz...

    @rcoleman-netgate said in LAN port hangs when using Web UI: @nathanzumwalt MESH is evil. Agreed... even the new network topology didn't keep the eero devices from interfering with pfSense eventually (just took a little longer for the same symptoms to appear). I replaced the eero mesh with some Netgear wifi access points and the network has been stable ever since.
