    In general, that's not exactly comparing similar products. Vyatta is more comparable to Cisco IOS, and we're more comparable to a Cisco ASA. They're two diff product lines for a reason. The general consensus I've heard from a number of open source networking fans is "Vyatta if you're looking for a router, pfSense if you're looking for a firewall". There is some overlap, and some areas where either/or will suffice, just like the same could be said of IOS vs. ASA.

    Set the MTU to 9000. There is a box for doing so in the interface config.
    This assumes your interface is capable of this.

    Well that didn't turn out to be to hard.  The location to gen the CSR was a bit hidden (add cert) but once I found it, It has been added and I now have a proper HTTPS link to the config page accessing it internally.

    Thanks for the replies guys!

    I'm on 2.0.1-RELEASE (i386) so I guess I'll have to wait for the next final version to come and upgrade.
    Now at least I know its possible.

    I was able to put the Pep Wave AP One access points into bridged mode. I believe Apple TV is working now. Since the site is 2000 miles away from me, I'll have to wait for the devices to be tested. I have a test setup, with the same equipment, in my office and it's working fine. Thank you jimp!

    And what is the IP address of the system on which you are trying to access pfSense? What is reported when you attempt the access? (The error message from the application is nearly always more informative than the "high level summary": "can't access")

    On System -> General where you have listed your desired name servers, do you have the box Allow DNS server list to be overridden by DHCP/PPP on WAN ticked? (It shouldn't be!)

    You're a genius Thanks.

    For anyone that ever has this issue. The exact steps i took are below.

    Removed Default gateway from the WAN gateway how ever many you have.
    Reboot modem.
    delete the default gateway made by the system (this makes a new one)
    all working.

    I was not familiar with the 'raw filter logs' option for the firewall log which lead me to believe your install may have had a more serious problem since your logs appeared to be completely ****ed.
    However that was my mistake, sorry about that.  :-[

    Thank you sooo much! FYI-It does seem to happen under a more heavy load and time of day.

    Here is my plan.
    1 - Have the customer replace the network cable to dc0.
    2 - If there is still an issue, I built up a new HP Pentium 4 system and added two Intel cards to it and disabled the on-board NIC and disabled PnP. I restored the config to it and will have the customer start using this one.

    I will let you know the results!

    No.  That job will just run on the first day (1) of every month.  It will not run once a week.  If you want to run it once a week your cron should look like this:

    0  0  *  *  0  root  /root/squidGuard_blacklist_update.sh

    0 = Sunday … 6 = Saturday
