sorry I solved I had forgotten activating a floating rule that was used to see wifi_ospiti to lan_net
everything works now
THANK YOU SO MUCH

If clients had connections open before you applied those Limiters they may still have unlimited firewall states present. If they are using an always on VPN for example.
Reset the states, see if it's still there. That will be disruptive though.

In 2.4 you can set a failover group as the default gateway so you should be able to send an email as long as one WAN is still up. Though I've never tested that.

Steve

Is the firewall default route via WAN1? Some traffic from those boxes, like DNS, might still be going that way if they use pfSense. You would that expect that to affect an existing call though.

Steve

@dnickel It's draw.io It's pretty solid drawing app.

@Derelict found the cause of error. Apparently my all my 3 subnets is in different AZs.

Instance and Network Interface should sit in the same AZs to work.

Thanks. I can just run "/etc/rc.initial" and it fires up the shell. Strange. I'll test on another pfSense box.

@KOM I guess I can do a clean install, then if the config breaks it, just clean install again. Saves me a lot of work, if it works!

Yep.

Although, even when swap exists, I advise to check now and then that the system isn't using it.
If it does, add real memory, also called RAM.

As soon as the swap gets used, your system (pfSense) will start to crawl. The memory on disk is thousands of times slower as RAM access.

That may have done the trick. I will keep monitoring. thanks.

@rsaanon said in pfsense with Spectrum Internet:

@bmeeks That's a good thought, but I had done a couple of things to ensure that ISP was not coupling the MAC address of the PC to the connection where the ISP DHCP server will not serve out IP to a different MAC:

I rebooted the modem and waited an hour to ensure that ISP DHCP lease is released back to the DHCP pool I spoofed the MAC address of my PC inside of the hypervisor/ESXi

Based on the above two steps, I doubt that the issue is related to "learned" MAC address. Thoughts?

Thanks!

I agree if you spoofed the PC's MAC address and rebooted the cable modem, that should have addressed any "learned MAC" issues.

Thanks, this is what I meant

@atomicboy said in How to remove PFSense from Appliance:

I was able to access the bios and set the USB port with the USB in it as the only option for boot up and not just the order of boot and this worked. Upon booting the USB, the program determined that there was not enough space on the hard drive so it provided an option for me to repartition the disk and I selected the entire disk which in effect erased PFSense.

You found it 👍

I think someone else had this same issue recently in that the graph reports double the actual bandwidth. Search the forums for traffic graph and see if it was resolved or is still outstanding.

I try to help out where I can. Even though I've been here five years or so, I still remember the feeling of being new and posing a question into the void and getting no response. If I think I can even point them in the right direction, I'll reply. You might notice that this forum has very few unanswered posts. Not all issues can be resolved via the community forums, but I think we have a pretty high success rate and that helps the project's reputation & success.

Sorry, no. I have to move a facility in late June and that is when it is going to happen.

@jimp Roger....Thanks

I think there has been some confusion here.

Well look at his quote. Thus he can answer for himself I suppose.. :)

@NogBadTheBad said in Does pfSense support SNTP:

You still have to XMODEM IOS to a Cisco switch if there's no IOS in flash :)

I think I saw that mentioned in my search for firmware updates. However, that would be a bit difficult to do without a serial port on that box. However, what is does to is create a web server, if the firmware can't be found. That web server can then be used to upload the firmware. I wonder if that gets turned on, when http upload is selected. I was using tftp, where I had to specify the IP address and file, but the missing firmware web server was 192.168.1.254, IIRC. I'll have to look into that.

Disable IPv6 on the pfSense LAN

Thanks - It's resolved - I've disable DHCP 6 server and uncheck in my LAN interface everything is perfect now.
