Just tested, the issue/bug still exists even though Unbound didn't listen on the WAN interface.

Writing paper models, tips , and information provide this service.click here. Your link is for a commercial service unrelated to pfSense, that type of advertising on the forums is not allowed and will get you banned.

Btw. since I'm really new to pfSense I do welcome any input and improvements in regards to my rules and configurations.

if its going through pfsense it sure is not broadcasting or multicasting, unicasting sure.. You do understand broadcast layer 2.. You can do some stuff with multicasting if you have smart switches and pfsense has igmp proxy, if your wanting to multcast to install images onto machines I would suggest the box that is pushing the images to your machines should be in the same layer 2 as getting the image since seems you don't even have smart switches that can do anything with multicast?

I think I'll stick with just these two features: Block RFC1918 Private Networks Block bogon networks

@BlueKobold: What else can I try? This is new pfsense box… See above. What kind of connection method you were setting up at the pfSense box? DHCP, static public IP address or something else? Is the Arris a pure modem or a router? After rebooting the pfSense was the given MAC address from you also inside or gone? Perhaps you might be needing the new MAC Adress from the new Arris modem? Please help! I am pulling my hair out! Don´t do so this only looks good for Bruce Willis! Thank you all for the help. I had Charter switch out the cable modem from the Arris to a cisco modem. Fired up the cisco and it worked instantly …. even without having to change the mac address. It seems like on another forum I had read where some of the newer cable modems don't work with pfsense.  Thought I would share for someone else who might have the same issue. Here is another person who had the same issue as me on the pfsense forums..... https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?action=profile;area=showposts;u=287475 Again... thanks for all the help!!! :D

Yep, That was it. Thanks!

Thank you.

NAT Reflection is one way to do it, but it's generally not recommended.  Always test your port forwards from the WAN side.  I find my phone is quite handy for such testing, and there is an official RDP app from MS for Android, for example..

@MrGreen: If anyone know a good public CA that provides S/MIME certs please let me know. www.startssl.com

nevermind… post solution for others. In User groups delete this User config - deny config write  

Distance is just one of the factors, because your latency to the destination is largely from physical distance in many cases. Not always the case though, you could be taking some extremely sub-optimal path to get there. ISPs' Internet routing is generally least-cost (monitarily for them), not necessarily best path.

All there and works, you have to be logged in though.

Guessing you cleared out the <installedpackages>section of the config backup before restoring. Though uPNP is in base now, its config is still under <installedpackages>. It restores fine where the settings are correctly in the restored config.</installedpackages></installedpackages>

@virgiliomi: The Monitor graphs don't provide that data anymore. RRD is not the most accurate way to be tracking total traffic anyway, as it loses accuracy as soon as 8 hours because it averages data to reduce the amount of data needed to be stored long-term. If you want to track this using RRD's data, you can add the "RRD Summary" package, which will add an item to the Status menu allowing you to see the RRD total traffic numbers with some basic settings. jdillard has been working on bringing vnstat over to the 2.3.x world as a more accurate way to track total traffic, providing graphs for a variety of time periods (I believe vnstat can show daily, weekly, and monthly graphs, though what he will have available, I don't know). A couple of his posts over in this thread include links to screenshots of the graphs. Ok sounds good, thanks for the info!

Am eagerly awaiting ntopng! Really would like to have the ability to track AND document activity of specific users
