@teamits said in SG-1100 - No upgrade prompt: @bmeeks This thread sounds like the issue you ran into in the (unrelated to this) Redmine update you just posted. Yeah, sounds similar. I'm only working with my SG-1100 to help Netgate sort out a weird bug with Snort and Suricata on ARM hardware (specifically the SG-3100, but it may apply to the SG-1100 as well, so that's what I'm going to test with).

I just saw in "messages from the pfSense team" in Thread "pfSense Plus and SG-3100" that the missing packages are not a "fault". As far as I understand, the pfSense team has removed the packages because 20.12 has a problems with nat on the SG-3100 (this is one of the problems I have with 20.12). So I think with a fixed 20.12 the problem with the "no longer can check for updates" will automatically disappear as soon as the pfSense team will provide the fixed version.

@nollipfsense Truth. Glad you got it sorted.

This new version is now working and appears to be stable. I can now use pfBlockerNG without getting frequent Google Chrome certificate errors. And the Amazon app on my phone no longer crashes when pfBlockerNG is enabled. I had some initial issues out of the gate with NordVPN with this new upgrade. However, it was quickly resolved after a clean install of 2.5/ restored 2.4.5 config in 2.5 and unchecked "enable data encryption negotiation." in openvpn. I'm now with glee...Thanks Netgate for this new upgrade!!

@lnguyen I was planning on waiting based on some of what i read but wasn't sure if switching to the 'plus' series of pfsense required a full reload from usb. Thanks!

@bmeeks thanks! (I guess I should have been able to figure that out)

the packages from openvpn don't route to my ipsec, I dont't have any idea

I have reinstalled now and it seems to work better, so thread can be discarded.

@stephenw10 Opened a ticket with Netgate and they gave me the link to download 21.02 for a clean install. Recreated config by hand. Thanks for the help!

Yup. So this is a bug in the UI that it doesn't communicate this, it just hangs.

Hello! The ntpd section is missing from the config.xml in 2.5. Browse to Services -> NTP and hit the Save button at the bottom. You dont need to change any settings. This should create the ntpd config and it will start showing up in the Status -> Services list as long as the service is enabled. John

Steps to resolve: open ticket on support new firmware will be available copy image to usb reinstal from USB

@maddy_in65 said in Connectivity issues after reinstall: 5260 unbound 82 0 154M 147M RUN 0 0:04 31.40% /usr/local/sbin/unbound-control -c /var/unbound/unbound.conf stats_noreset 6240 unbound 80 0 126M 120M CPU1 1 0:03 26.27% /usr/local/sbin/unbound-control -c /var/unbound/unbound.conf stats_noreset Two instances of unbound - the same process, that's a bad sign. unbound was asked to show stats without resetting them. Takes a milli second on my system, as it just spits out some variables. Yours blocks doing that, stays in memory, eating up resources. That's not normal at all. I advise you to ditch packages right away. And be sure your settings are default - especially the DNS ones. Then, ok to change settings, but look closely and a long time to system behaviour between changes.

Indeed there is no auto-update for firmware in pfSense. The only thing that does is the pfSense-upgrade and pkg packages in order to show you an updated repo list. That might happen if you open dashboard and have the firmware check enable. It will still just offer the upgrade though, it doesn't do anything until you click it. And, yes you can install as ZFS currently if you want. Steve

For me it stopped after it terminated all processes after upgrade, as in it should have rebooted after but didn't and was stuck in limbo for like an hour. I simply restarted it manually it was fine afterwards.
