    You mean the cron pfSense package?

    You can install that from the CLI like:

    [23.01-BETA][root@plusdev-3.stevew.lan]/root: pkg install pfSense-pkg-Cron Updating pfSense-core repository catalogue... pfSense-core repository is up to date. Updating pfSense repository catalogue... pfSense repository is up to date. All repositories are up to date.

    Hello @Gertjan, I did test the memory with memtest86+ and it did find issues with the existing RAM. I have installed new RAM in the system and tested it with a "PASS" result.

    I will keep monitoring the system to see if the crashes will stop.

    Thank you for your help,

    @operations said in WhatsApp videocalls on same network, connection really bad:

    I have bought a subnet /29 from a different company. So i setup a GRE tunnel and use IP Alias for the /29.
    Do you understand what i mean?

    I do. I would check the routing though, make sure the GRE tunnel has no become the default gateway for anything unexpected.

    Your description of the problem indicates to me that the calls are forced to fall back to some sort of relay mode rather then clients connecting directly. It's unclear what causes that though.
    It could be they require static outbound source ports since you didn't have any set. That would be a significant drawback for WhatsApp working behind many firewalls though.

    @mc-amz Just in case anyone stumbles upon this issue. We were able to fix it by adding the setting
    "ldap server require strong auth = no"
    to our smb.conf file.

    @nicesub said in Pfsense refuses to boot on Hyper-V:

    Few more things left to be fixed on it if possible:
    It does not know what kernel is installed and when I go to "System update page" it does not know which version is installed. Also I get message there "Unable to check for updates".
    In the package manager I cannot see the list of installed packaged as well and I cannot retrieve list of "Available packages".

    That's fixed years ago 😊
    You need the 2.6.0, not the ancient 2.5.2.

    If he has an wifi AP you could connect it to your switch and configure a separate subnet for the guest wifi.

    @johnpoz : I was originally using it as a bridge server, but the second side of that bridge server is not connected anymore and everything is on one side now.

    I think my best bet at this point is to take a separate computer and a separate switch and connect those to a separate NIC on the Sinology NAS so that I can access the GUI. From there maybe I can rework the network and get it put back together.

    To recap, when I installed the Netgate, I basically matched all of the networking. I wanted it all to be the same as it was in the sonic wall. Same, WAN, same, LAN, same port forwards.

    Basically, everything worked out except for the NAS.

    I crack into it more after the holiday.
    Thanks for your response.

    @nollipfsense that's almost what I was doing anyway, but then that again gets the printer on a different subnet from the PC, which puts the barrier between the UDP communication, which would make the printer not function.

    That said, I think I may have figured out that the Canon driver potentially is only using UDP broadcast to initially find the printer if it's IP address is changed or it's a new installation. So, if I assign the printer a static IP on its network, and I temporarily move devices that need to print to it to the same network just for the driver install, then I can move the devices back to other subnets on the overall network and maintain functionality.

    I'll have to test this through a few reboots and several days to confirm it does indeed work, that would suffice for now. I may eventually try to figure out which UDP ports I need to relay to get the Canon drivers to work without having to move devices around between the networks, if it becomes more problematic and this workaround doesn't hold.

    Just wanted to post an update. Was able to get this unifi AP working on a different subnet by SSHing into the AP and pointing it with setinform to the controller on the other subnet.

    @furom you could always put in a feature request over at the pfsense redmine

    https://redmine.pfsense.org/

    edit: not widget but if your on the normal firewall log, you can put in a !WAN for the interface and get all interfaces that are not wan.
