@rballester:

Question: What i can do??

I suggest reading more carefully  :P
(As pointed out, the copy/paste shows "alpha lima charlie zero"
                                    and you've typed "alpha charlie lima zero")

Well the fault documented in this thread has been fixed so it's not that.
The Alix can struggle with memory during upgrades. Are you running packages? Lots of interfaces? What CF size? Did it just fail to upgrade or crash out somehow? Anything in the logs, particularly the NanoBSD upgrade log in Diagnostics: NanoBSD:?

The same effect is happening on a 2.2 development system also. I get the effect with 2.1.5 and 2.2 and Firefox browser (so it isn't just a specific browser thing). Can't immediately see an obvious change that caused this.

Thanks

That's not something you run at the command line. You have to add the line:
ahci_load="YES"
to the file  /boot/loader.conf.local
You can do the using the webgui in Diagnosics: Edit File: or from the command line using the built in ee editor (or vi if you're a masochist!).

I have seen routes for DynDNS go down that way.  I have also seen OpenNIC DNS do the same.  Also, its not unusual that ISPs try to block any DNS other than their own.  At any rate - See.  Not necessarily Pfsense (-;

Glad its sorted out.

ath9k is a Linux driver and pfSense is not Linux. The uath(4) driver is already in the kernel but doesn't support that chipset.

Steve

Nope.  I don't mean anything.  Stick with it.  To each his own.

@dlogan:

I have pfSense embedded on a 4 GB flash card, it's actually a PFW201 from Tranquilnet.  I upgraded from 1.2.3 to 2.0.5 yesterday.  Snort installed.  Then I go to Services -> Snort and when I click to add an interface I get the following page:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function snort_generate_id() in /usr/local/www/snort/snort_interfaces_edit.php on line 68

Ugh!  Another Nano install… :'(

OK, I'm not completely hostile to Nano installs, but it seems there are frequently a number of problems with packages on these systems.  This error means that either you do not have a snort.inc file on the partition, or it is an exceedingly old one.  Since you didn't post with all the other errors I would expect if the file was completetly missing, I'm thinking your partition has one that is very, very old.

Try removing the Snort package, rebooting, then installing it again.  If that doesn't work, you will need to put your system partition in read/write mode, and then go find the file /usr/local/pkg/snort/snort.inc and delete it.  Then try the install again.

Thank you.
Wi-Fi network seems to be working and WPA2 password authentication working.
See how it goes with some other mobiles when visitors test it during the week.

It shouldn't be an issue. It's fixed now and I upgraded my box using the auto button no problem. The real lesson here might be to hold back a day or so and let someone else take the hit! Of course if your box is at hand, as mine was, then taking that hit so that someone else doesn't have to fly across the country to fix theirs is a good thing.  :)

It was an issue with parent VLANs.  I simply forgot about VLAN tagging for a bit.

Hmm…
The version I installed when i experienced this was 2.1.4, but since 2.1.5 was released recently, i re-downloaded and installed again. Seems fine now. Very strange.

Is there a way to remove the link?

Yep, up and working. Thanks!

I would exepect pfSense to be at least as 'secure' as the Draytek router as a fresh install.
Some here would argue that you're not really 'secure' unless you're running Snort (or equivalent). It depends how you define secure really.
Of your list the only thing I can see any issue with would be redirecting p2p traffic via a specific VPN. How are you planning to catch that traffic? There is a layer 7 filter that can do it but I've personally found it very easy to get wrong.  ;) If you're able to divide out the p2p traffic some other way, like using a separate wifi network, it will be much easier.

Steve

OOoooh.. Much better way than what I posted. lol I think I'll link this thread in the other thread that had essentially the same question. ^^;
