          Your ticket has been added to mine and the target version has been set to 2.8.0 and 24.03.
          https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/15043

          I now hope that these versions will be released as soon as possible.

            Release 24.03…wow. So the fix is targeted to be here somewhere in the next 6 months orso?

            Is it possible to run the igmp proxy package from 2.6 on 2.7? That would be a workaround perhaps for the time being.

              Release fixes are estimations not hard deadlines. It could theoretically be pushed back for months or years so ive seen.
              My advice, If possible, downgrade back to a working pfsense version. Not great advice i grant you but i dont know another solution.

              Also i advice people on the following
              https://www.netgate.com/supported-pfsense-plus-packages

              Firewall: NetGate,Palo Alto-VM,Juniper SRX
              Routing: Juniper, Arista, Cisco
              Switching: Juniper, Arista, Cisco
              Wireless: Unifi, Aruba IAP

                  My Workaround is far more simple

                  Just set an cronjob for a time in the morning hours and stay at the CE2.7.1

                  	/usr/local/sbin/pfSsh.php playback svc restart igmpproxy

                  This fixes it for the day in my setup

                    i have done this but in my case it's doesn't help.
                    These reason is if you change to often between 2 chanals in short time the proxy get messed up.
                    I will try to install the older working igmproxy

                        Restarting the igmp proxy works temporarily, but it happens again when changing channels a few times so not really a workable solution here.

                            Since we are now at FreeBSD 14 i do'nt know if an install from an different Kernelversion works :/

                            There must be a "newer" Version of igmpproxy (4.1.1), we should be on 4.1 originally on pfsense

                            But since the versioning is a bit unloved by the maintainer, i dont know it fixes something from our mess...i'm not an programmer and while looking at the changes last two years, i've no clue what the problem is exactly

                            Link Text Freshports says there is an new version

                            Link Text FreeBSD Org too..

                            But dont see any link to the package?

                            the "normal" way to install would be

                            pkg add -f "link to the repo"file.txz

                            But as i sayed, i did'nt find any FreeBSD 14 Repo from

                              @UlfMerbold I tried 4.1.1 and also older versions 3.x.x. None of them work. So it seems its not the IGMPproxy software but something in the kernel/freebsd release.

                              If you want to try you can enable the FreeBSD repositories by changing the value from no to yes in /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/pfSense.conf and /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf

                              pkg update
                              pkg search igmpproxy
                              pkg install igmpproxy......

                                thanks for testing.
                                At the moment i have another workaround (somthing from the past as IGMPProxy also not worked)
                                I configured a servicewathdog. Last 2 Days have seen 2 restarts in the morningtime.
                                This worked for me so far.
                                But indeed there must be somthing wrong the combination new Kernel and Proxy.
                                If you said 0.31 ist also not working. i noticed 0.31 is the former version working with Kernel 14 from PF+ 23.05.
                                So the Kernelnumber is matching. Look like someting is wrong with checksum and lost IGMP memberships. And when you heavy switch betreen 2 chanels there is a memory leak or what else. (i'm not an expert on that level)
                                Someting has changed in the new 14 Kernel.

                                If i find the time i will also tryout 0.31. and 0.4.1

                                or i will wait for a solution

                                    I just saw the new releases for CE and pf+ but sadly no igmp proxy fix in the release notes.

                                      yes but maybe a kernel fix ?
                                      I think igmpproxy is not the problem because the same version igmpproxy is working fine with older 14er Kernel.
                                      i see this:
                                      Installed packages to be UPGRADED:
                                      pfSense: 23.09 -> 23.09.1 [pfSense]
                                      pfSense-base: 23.09 -> 23.09.1 [pfSense-core]
                                      pfSense-boot: 23.09 -> 23.09.1 [pfSense-core]
                                      pfSense-default-config: 23.09 -> 23.09.1 [pfSense]
                                      pfSense-kernel-pfSense: 23.09 -> 23.09.1 [pfSense-core]
                                      pfSense-repo: 23.09 -> 23.09.1 [pfSense]

                                        Has anyone already installed 2.7.2?
                                        Does the problem still exist?
                                        Or are there new problems?

                                            Yes this is because Kernel version and igmp version is the same as in 2.7.2
                                            Kernel 1400094

                                            long time ago as far as i remember pfsense 2.3... or 2.4 the same disaster with igmpproxy and the workaround was very crazy.
                                            copy back an older version back. (but will give it a try again)

                                            cheers

                                            btw. i'm looking forwrd to a change to pimd. But ther is no understandble information for human to configure it right in a simple IPTV enviroment.
                                            My knowledge and time to experiment is to less.
