        regarding the CPU speed stuck @ 800Mhz.

        It is a Dell issue...
        i changed power supply of dell optiplex 3050 micro and bios is not recognising it so it is activating something called as BD PROTHOT which makes the cpu run at the lowest possible freq.
        Thus i want to know is there any way that can be disabled using a script in bsd.

        Please check this askubuntu-link and this link

          The PPPoE link is going down because the remove side is closing it:

          Mar 11 00:24:05	ppp	35096	[wan_link0] LCP: state change Opened --> Stopping
Mar 11 00:24:05	ppp	35096	[wan_link0] LCP: rec'd Terminate Request #243 (Opened)
Mar 11 00:17:03	ppp	35096	[wan] IFACE: Add description "WAN"
Mar 11 00:17:03	ppp	35096	[wan] IFACE: Rename interface ng0 to pppoe0

          You might be able to manually change those MSRs using cpuctl.

            yes the remote site is closing it...but why?? on 22.05 this is not happening.

            what commands to put in for MSR and cpuctl?
            i am a not technical person and not a engineer with coding skills.

              I don't know, it's not something I've ever had to try. Those links you posted above seem to list the registers used by the throttling though.

                thanks for the help...
                i am a not technical guy and trying to setup a home lab for my self as a hobby...
                hope some one in the forum will know the know-how and might help..

                Also regarding the WAN disconnection from the remote side do you have any idea why this is happening or what i can do more to diagnose the problem.
                because the WAN is not working, i am unable to upgrade to 23.01 and thus i am not able to install any packages in 22.05...
                i am really in a fix...dont know what to do next.
                i am afraid that if i do a fresh clean install of 2.6 CE and then upgrade it to 23.01 the issue might persist and i will be wasting a whole lot of hours and gaining nothing.
                i think netgate should not discontinue older versions and their package support atleast for like 3-4 months after releasing a new version, so that guys like me can alteast enjoy using the pfsense on older versions when newer versions do have unexplainable bugs.

                also my IP still banned from the community...please ask the IT incharge to look into it.. netgate should not ban legitimate ISP ip range.

                  That IP range is in a subnet that's blocked because it's a source of mostly spam. I'm not sure we can exclude individual IPs within that.

                  You can continue to use 22.05 for some time. The pkg repos will remain available.

                    I'm having a similar issue with PPPOE after updating to 23.01, the link comes up and then mpd5 dies... The log seems to show that a second instance of mpd5 is being started, which sends a kill signal to the previous one and take over from it. This process then repeats indefinitely.

                      @puneet1984 Use IPv6 on Jio, less likely to be recycled address space or shared CGNAT space, so less likely to be on existing blacklists.

                        Is there anything in the main system log starting that?

                        It's not quite the same issue. OP's log here shows the terminate received via LCP and yours doesn't?

                          @stephenw10 Not that i've seen, i had to revert to 22.05 to get back online.. Is it possible to mount the alternative bootenv to retrieve the logs?

                            Not dircetly that I'm aware of, you'd need to boot into it.

                              @stephenw10 what am i thinking.. i have a syslog server.
                              It seems to spawn rc.newwanip for pppoe0, then 2 seconds later a new instance of mpd5 is spawned which kills the old one:

                                Seems like a race condition. What's opt5? How is it configured?

                                  @stephenw10 opt5 is the pppoe interface, config is a little convoluted...

                                  There is a wan interface (igb2) which is connected to a switch, there is a tagged vlan interface (igb2 vlan 80), then there is a carp vip on that interface with the ppp session bound to it for failover.
                                  Taking the backup firewall offline and binding pppoe directly to igb2.80 made no difference.

                                  ppp configuration is mostly default - username, password, null service name, mtu set to 1500 to use baby jumbo frames.

                                  Interface configured legacy ip using pppoe, and then dhcpv6 for ipv6 with a /56 prefix delegation set to "information only" as it's static and i don't need to dynamically apply it to other interfaces.

                                    Hmm, that should be OK. Though technically PPPoE is not supported in HA.

                                    How is igb2 configured? In that sort of setup I would want to see it only static or no IP.

                                      @stephenw10 no ip on igb2..
                                      The HA with PPPoE works well with 22.05 and earlier versions.

                                          @stephenw10 yeah igb2 is assigned and active.
                                          The same config works with 22.05, performing an upgrade to 23.01 with no config changes triggers the problem.
                                          The logs show the PPP session coming up, and then a second instance of mpd5 is spawned which causes the first one to terminate.
                                          It seems mpd5 is always started with the -k option:
                                          -k, --kill Kill running mpd process before start
                                          just trying to work out why a second instance is getting spawned...

                                            Yes, something is causing that and my hunch is that it's because igb2 is assigned such that the vlan and pppoe subinterfaces are being restarted.
                                            Is there any reason igb2 is assigned? Can you unassign it as a test?
