@luckman212 Yes and no - It max’es out (average) on about 680mbit in single session downloads. It does have spikes above 700mbit. But depending on the situation i can get it to hit about 720mbit with spikes of 760mbit if I have 2 or 3 effective sessions downloading. I achieve exactly the same numbers using the RJ45 port, so there is no difference between them as far as I can tell. But => 800mbit can only be done without pffilter active (router only). I agree that it is the perfect device if only it had a more powerfull CPU. Size, ports (especially SFP). Memory and powerconsumption is outstanding for homeuse.

Where did you get the recovery image? You need to contact Netgate support to get the correct image, you can not use any image in download area. If you got the ticket from support, create a successing ticket for this issue. Regards

@bigsy Thanks for answer. the netgate support helped me to solve the problem. regards.

Kudos to the Netgate support - received my replacement (Austria - US - Austria)!

@teamits Oh, I am blind. I now see the other issue mentioned, apologies

@teamits It has nothing to do with "boot". It keeps booting up. I have a screen connected through serial port. Then I found that the operating system does not have enough memory, and can not perform the upgrade. The IT support (support@netgate.com) was very competent, and helped me to reinstall. After 15min my Netgate device is working again.

@sgw The other option is to use MD5 as the hash algorithm, though I would recommend against if possible to avoid. AESGCM is the ideal workaround here. Best of luck.

I'd start with Status/System Logs/System/General, Gateways, and Routing.

@teamits Yes, four-port network card. D'oh, pretty obvious ;) Thank you for clarifying, friend.

Does the wifi router itself pull an IP address from pfSense when it's connected to the SG-2100 LAN? Steve

Everything that is done through the webgui is backed up. Only things like custom loader files are not. Steve

Yes, it's a known issue in 21.02/p1. https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/11436

@ozlecz Looks like at one time is was: MTFDDAV256TBN I couldn't guaranty we always used that drive though. I could probably see what was fitted to yours if you have an order number. Steve

@jonathan66 Reboot using the console. Chose option 5. When asked, use option F = Reboot and run a filesystem check After the reboot, the file system is checked and repaired. Changes are these files : /usr/local/lib/php/20190902/zlib.so /usr/local/lib/php/20190902/xml.so will not get repaired. Maybe even removed because invalid. A re install is in the case the fastest way out. Or, from the install file - extract these two files and copy them over. What happens is that your config file can't be read, so pfSense defaults to default settings. For WAN, this is DHCP on WAN - so it works out of the box. For LAN it is 192.168.1.1/24 etc - but you probably changed that, so LAN does not seem to work now (tip : keep LAN to the default settings, so, in case of emergency, LAN works ^^) Btw : tip : before you upgrade, reboot using the console and do a "sanity" file check. That way you are sure all is well. Check the GUI logs after the reboot. See for any suspect messages. File system inconsistencies go undetected while booting from the GUI (except when the block the booting process). They are normally introduced when there is a power failure (aka : no clean shu tdown) and very comparable what will happen with your PC when you ripe out the power.

Hi @gabacho4 Thank you for your reply. I thought I did something not right in the setting or configuration. Anyway, if it is due to the FreeBSD, there isn't much can be done. Paying for 1G connection and not getting it, i am disappointed.

@stephenw10 I’d seen that one, along with another that causes a panic if there are multiple changes/saves in a short timeframe. Glad I’m not experiencing anything new. Here’s to hoping a fix comes very soon.
