    It has probably pulled in some newer pkg. See: https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/troubleshooting/upgrades.html#upgrade-not-offered-library-errors

    Old forum post led me in the right direction. I have forgotten that in pfBlocker there is an option in SafeSearch to block DoH/DoT. Unchecked apples relay names and reloaded. Everything works.

    I am currently in that same process, but I have been using pfsense with captive portal and freeradius for authentication for 8 years. I have a little more than 1800 clients and I am about to switch to pppoe with limiters, in the tests it has worked excellently. I have segmented by area with VLANS so these will continue. In this way, I reduce the need to have a pppoe server with a high number of users. I have to run a PPPoE server for each VLAN or interface.

    @SteveITS Thank you, I will re-examine the logs and see if for any reason it appears I was in one of the two cases. I will test as well again entering and exiting the maintenance mode. Andrea

    @stephenw10 @jrey Ok, I ordered a USB-serial cable and did a reinstall from scratch this morning. It was easier than I thought and everything seems to be fine again. I also saw that the router had (from factory) still UFS as file system before and that might be the reason why I had such strange file system corruptions. Hopefully ZFS is more robust now against power failures. And I will try to change the configuration so that my router is also powered by my UPS Thanks to all, Michael

    @stephenw10 Back to pfSense from Sophos. Glad to be back. That is all I will say. Fresh install of 2.7.2 CE and upgraded to 23.09.1 plus on a new NVME drive. No other hardware changes. All is working perfectly out of the box. I have purchased TAC Lite. I didn't realize before I was on home/lab license so I didn't get any kind of support except for community. All is right in the pfSense world now.

    @sloopbun Hmm, that does sound strange. I have no suggestions for how to troubleshoot that. It could be that the NIC PCIe card needs different drivers or some optimisations are needed for the current driver. But it could also be that the SFP does not play nice with that NIC.

    They should use them when they try to pull a new lease. So if the client is rebooted it should pull the new static lease.

    @Jarhead said in Travel Netgate Box: Although FreeBSD 14 has started to support wifi6, It supports some wifi6 hardware but not at 802.11ax speeds. And as far as I know none of it supports hostap mode so they are client only.

    OMG!! Just checked the date stamps! That came through about 5 minutes after I submitted the original request. Now the stupidity and blunder rests upon me. I will have to add +.@netgate.com to my whitelist. Thanks for gentle reminder. -d

    Got around this morning to contacting support about the change in NDI from the "repair". Essentially told to pound sand with the Plus upgrade.. So I guess grandfathering in the Plus for homelab is not a thing anymore. :( That's too bad.

    @kdmiller61 said in Hosting websites from Germany: my internet provider will charge a huge amount of money for a static IP like I had in the states So you checked on that already? Or your assuming? Is your IP actually changing? I have a dynamic IP, and its only changed once in years. And that was when the isp merged with another isp and redid all their address space. Normally the way dhcp is suppose to work, is as long as you are renewing the IP it shouldn't change.. Only when you have not renewed and the lease expires could the lease be given to someone else.
