Yes, the ports can be assigned and used however you wish. They are just labelled WANx LANx on the enclosure.

It's likely that something went wrong during the upgrade (e.g. ran out of memory/storage space). Open a ticket with TAC and they'll help get it running again: https://www.netgate.com/tac-support-request

UPDATE: Well, it looks like this issue is the ISP's (Optimum internet of California) fault. The signal sending from the modem wasn't strong enough to send more than a few KB back per minute. The issue is completely on their system's end, as we are using a brand new DOCSIS 3.1 Netgear modem.

@dch22023 I use to get denial of service attacks non stop at home do to what I did for work. I couldn't even watch a steaming video. That on top of working 16s in Chicago would drive me bonkers. Fast forward to today I have a SG2100 and I never have issues anymore the firewall takes care of all of it. I run mine on a DSL line it's fine for what I need.

@admin please move thread to official hardware board.

Yup the switch support is only in Plus. Install 23.09 clean and you should be good to go.

All Netgate appliances come with at least a basic level of support. Open a ticket with TAC and they'll be able to help get it running again:

@stephenw10 Got it, saving all this this time, so I stop asking and can keep them straight. :) We'll have several client 3100s to move to 2100s or 4100s.

You can still reinstall to the eMMC if you needed to.
When you run 'usbrecovery' it erases the eMMC to prevent the filesystem conflicting with the new install. It is possible to install to the eMMC if, for example, you use UFS there to prevent a conflict. But you would need to override the boot device in uboot to boot it.

It didn't take long for sure. Thank you to everyone here who assisted. I GREATLY appreciate it.

I downloaded the image, followed the instructions (there were some subtle differences), but ultimately it worked. The Netgate has been swapped back over as of yesterday morning and working flawlessly.

I appreciate everyone's help.

What sort of m.2 slots? What do you need to use them for?

What sort of throughput do you need? What is the available WAN bandwidth?

@mer said in Netgate 8200 - Thermals:

@tsmialek Interesting. Is that the same direction as stock? I wonder where all that exhausts. I would be inclined to "pull" air from the heat sink and make sure the intake side of equation has enough holes.

Notice the first picture in this thread. The heatsink has a very clever airducting design, and the chassis is not really closed as such. Those airducts on the heatsink leads to exit vents in the chassis, so it’s very cleverly designed to actually blow air onto - which is a LOT more effective in this case.

Update: I thought I needed a paid subscription to get non-community support. Having learnt that this is not the case with Netgate hardware, I have raised a case with the support team.

Mmm, most likely scenario here is that the LAN subnet changed and you need to reconnect the client so it pulls a new lease in the new subnet.

@stephenw10 said in SIMCom SIM7906 LTE modem disconnecting/detaching on SG-3100:

Can you test the modem in something else?

I'll do it, when I get back to the office after the weekend.

@SteveITS Thank you, that was it!

@johnpoz Yes it got fixed, 23.09 shows up in drop down.

Thanks

The lines about EdgeRouters and EdgeOS are about UI's EdgeRouters and EdgeOS, which are being revived with a GUI update. My comments on the UniFi UDM-Pro & UXG-Pro routers are in the first 2 paragraphs.

Yeah the 2100 has far more limitations mostly because it's arm based. The 6100 has none of those. Any card should work there as a PCIe device. The pfSense/FreeBSD wifi driver limitations still apply of course!

Nope not in the system log. The fact it doesn't show anything there is interesting though.

You can also check the routing and dhcp logs for any events at that time.

I would re-enable gateway monitoring and set it to something external like 8.8.8.8.
