    @stephenw10
    if there were major issues i would have been informed / yelled at ;)
    have only briefly tested it myself

    around 200-400 "simultaneous" portal logins - but idle timeout is set at 8 hours or something.
    only student phones or other personal devices use the portal.
    around 80-160GB of data per day go through the CP-vlan

    staff/school-owned devices are on different vlans/ssid's

    So this started happening after upgrading to 23.01? And is repeatable every time?

    For the last few months it worked as expected was that all in 22.05?

    @rcoleman-netgate I had also tried to rm -rf /, and it did report itself as a read-only file system.

    I've created the ticket and sent the requested log. Thanks.

    I haven't read through all of the replies, but you cannot eliminate the AT&T gateway. First off, the newer models like the one shown have the ONT built-in. Secondly, the fiber service requires certificate-based authentication, so even if you clone the AT&T gateway's MAC address on your pfSense it will not work.

    The previous workarounds also do not work like they did with previous AT&T gateways and separate ONT module. If you want any fiber plan over 1 gig, then you will be issued the same gateway as in the original post. Also note the LAN ports are all 1 gig with the exception of first port which is blue and will support 5 gig, 2.5 gig, or 1 gig.

    i'm fairly certain the sg2100 has this capability. i'm scratching my head as to what to do to get that to display.

    Also recommend reading up on the switch: https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/solutions/netgate-2100/switch-overview.html

    good reminder. lol thanks

    @ppmax For 1 gig go for the 4100 at least. I'm at a 6100 with multi WAN 1 gig and while using Suricata that unit hits 100% CPU.

    @stephenw10 I got the power supply back in the unit and the cables back where they should be. It wasn't fun... I would hate for the PSU to ever fail in this unit, I'd rather just buy a whole other system.. System boots, all is fine.. I think...

    I notice now my Ventoy drive will no longer boot via UEFI.. It just shows BIOS only.. I think this was after I did a BIOS update, I did also factory reset the BIOS settings. Ventoy booted before via UEFI, now it don't like it. Was gonna boot my Ventoy drive and run Memtest86 Pro against the RAM, cuz I upgraded the RAM. Looks like I'll have to write memtest to a flash drive the old school way. This is my first Supermicro server, and I'm not impressed.. I'll definitely stick with Dell PowerEdges. Of course pop my Ventoy drive into any other system, including other servers.. boots via UEFI with no issues.

    The 10G NICs are still randomly blinking of course. I'm going to file a ticket with Supermicro about it. Right now I'm fixing all the kinks with the system. Seems anything I try to do is just biting me in the rear. This is supposed to be a server but acts more like a finicky DIY system.

    @rcoleman-netgate It's the splash screen, it's so fast my camera could barely focus on it.

    It's actually correct, but I can see why it's misleading cuz it flashes so fast you can't read it.

    @zatco Honestly if you are using ZFS on the boot drive, I'd just make the boot drive larger and use it. Depending how your boot drives are configured and if you have autoexpand enabled, you could increase the storage size of the pool. Or just re-install pfSense on the larger drive.

    I decided to just reenter my configurations. It was easier since I could copy and paste from the backup I had. Firewall has been up and stable for the past couple of days since the factory reset. Thanks for your help.
