      @rsicard see the "reinstall" doc page I posted above.

      you will probably run into trouble trying to upgrade. early models had the too-small EFI partition and the solution is to reinstall. Otherwise you can try the troubleshooting doc I posted and if it does work there will be multiple steps to get current.

      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.

        Yes and at a firmware that old you probably have the old uboot version. So open a support ticket and ask for the compat recovery image. If you reference this thread TAC can check it.

                OK. Now how much is this going to cost me to upgrade? This was not expected when I originally purchase the SG-1100. Otherwise would have not purchased same. Was no warning of cost to upgrade Community Edition.

                  @rsicard You are misunderstanding.

                  You cannot run CE on an 1100, only Plus. CE can't run on ARM.

                  The Plus image is a free Netgate ticket. You need only your serial or NDI number. (check the sticker on it, or the pfSense dashboard)

                      The Netgate Firmware Upgrade utility does not apply to the 1100. Uboot should be upgraded automatically during the pfSense upgrade but it appears yours has not been upgraded. Or not for some time at least.

                        Nothing. There is no cost involved here. All Netgate hardware includes Plus upgrades for the life of the device.
