Ok, we fixed the WAN issue. Now pfSense can resolve and ping google.com. But pfSense still won't update.

What does the Update Branch say in the GUI? System->Updates

@rcoleman-netgate I just did another factory reset. Immediately after the setup wizard, pfSense checked for updates and did not find any. Here is the Update page:
-
@jeremy11one Previously you said that you aren't local to the device but now you've done a factory reset. Does that mean you're on site?
If so I recommend requesting the 22.01 image from TAC and reimaging the system.
-
@rcoleman-netgate No, I'm still remote. There is a laptop onsite that is connected to the neighbor's Wi-Fi and also plugged into our LAN via ethernet. So I can remote into the laptop through the neighbor's Wi-Fi connection, then access the firewall through its LAN port since it's plugged into our network. That lets me do Factory Resets and anything else through the pfSense box's LAN port.
If there's no way to fix it via the LAN port, I can ship a USB cable to them so I can re-image it that way, but shipping will take a few days.
What is causing this "Bad Request" error? Is there some SSH command to tell pfSense to download and install a new image from another source?
-
@jeremy11one The issue I see is it is looking at a package repo that isn't providing all the necc. information.
I am afraid that I am not knowledgable enough to walk you around that specific issue but that doesn't mean that there is no other option to get to 2.4.5_1 and then to 22.01.

If that 1100 able to ping out to anything now?
Does it show the correct time and date?
If it doesn't try entering a known ntp server directly like216.239.35.0Steve

Hmm, OK make sure it can resolve and ping
ews.netgate.comWhat you're seeing there looks exactly like the issue the custom update branch was created to workaround.

@stephenw10 Somehow, pfSense stopped responding completely. I guess some config change I was trying somehow broke it. So this morning, we finally did the usbrecovery method, and MORE problems. The usbrecovery appears to have run successfully, but the firewall won't boot.
Here's the console output starting from the end of the usbrecovery:

In case this helps anyone else, NetGate support said my SG-1100 needs a firmware update to fix this new error:
From NetGate:
Your 1100 needs a UBoot firmware upgrade to get the ZFS component support. You will need to install to a UFS partition first, then run this command from the Diagnostics->Command Prompt (after connecting the 1100 to the internet): /usr/local/share/u-boot/1100/u-boot-update.sh -f And then you can reinstall with the ZFS partition. Some 1100s had a UBoot version running that we did not find during our exhaustive testing and the above process should cover the error at the end of your log file: ERROR: cannot open /boot/lua/loader.lua: invalid argument. -
Hmm, uboot should normally be updated automatically during the install.
We have seen some cases where it failed to recognise the old version and the above work-around can solve it in that situation.
Most users should never have to do that though.Steve

My SG-1100 is now fixed and running the latest OS and U-Boot firmware. Thanks for everyone's help.
