      I have 2 pfsense CE units. One I was able to update using the option in the web interface. The 2nd unit refuses to recognize the new version is available.

      Any thoughts on how to troubleshoot and update?

        Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
        When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.
