      Huh. Well that seems like a bug. Does it log a reason for the config change in the history?

        if you give me some clues as to where to find the answer, I'll be happy to put it here

        I started with two "no-name" pfsense, one for use at home and the other as a backup in case of problems (which can happen when you're new to pfsense).

          In Diag > Backp/Restore > Config History

          You should see all the recent changes and it usually gives a brief description of what changed and often what called that change if it's something automatic.

            I'm not a specialist, but I don't think there's anything interesting here.

              Hmm, so those last set of changes at 15:43 were the last reboot including you clicking on the verify button?

                It's a repeat of the prior log entry. I.E. my workstation address and my login and "Updated traffic graphs widget settings via dashboard."

                  Normally yes, because I did these tests live with you.

                    Hmm, if you make some other config changes does it revert that instead? I.e. does it try to revert or reapply whatever the last config change was.

                    Or is it weirdly only ever the traffic graphs widget....

                      I don't believe so. The change to uncheck all the boxes is present in /boot/config.xml, so I'm not sure where the reverted config would come from?

                        I've only got one Pfsense active, and I don't really know what to do to test it (without breaking everything), so I discovered this ‘problem’ really by chance and mainly because of the stress of the countdown which, once it's finished, starts again for 20 seconds, then again, but only lasts 2-3 seconds.

                        So this is where I connect very quickly (the stress of a possible problem and where I don't have the expertise to ‘repair’ alone without help here) and I mechanically clicked quickly on the ‘green button’ and not the ‘red’.

                        My mistake came from connecting too quickly, 4-5 seconds too early

                        I started with two "no-name" pfsense, one for use at home and the other as a backup in case of problems (which can happen when you're new to pfsense).

                          Yup, this is a bug though. We are looking into it.
