        @maverick_slo Are you running WAN IPv4 only or with dualstack (IPv6), too?

        I've seen quite a few installs from us with dual stack where especially v6 was slow as hell. Disabling v6 (setting v6 gateway to none to force it to run via v4) was way faster. As sad as that is...

        Just an idea.

        If you're interested, I'm available to discuss details of German-speaking paid support (for companies) if needed.

          No ipv6 at all..

          Also no firewall rules that would block anything...

            Are you able to upload that pcap (or one like it) so we can look at it? That looks so catastrophic it should show something where it first fails.

                Hmm, unfortunately that doesn't include the initial part of the connection where it first fails. Are you able to get a pcap including that? If you just run pkg update for example.

                Was is that running on? The MAC addresses for pfSense and it's gateway are unusual.

                    @stephenw10 pkg_install_start.pcap uploaded.
                    It replicates behaviour and I started packet capture before trying to install freeradius package...

                    MAC addresses are Hyper-V, my firewall is virtual machine...

                      Hmm, something weird going on there. The packets are arriving out of order at the WAN. You can see in that pkg_install_start pcap where it first fails at packets 24-26. Packets 24 and 25 are reversed.

                      Do you have any hardware off-loading enabled?

                      If there any sort of proxy involved here? Something set in Hyper-V?

                      Can you test a bare metal install from the same location?

                        Bare metal same issue.
                        No proxy at all

                        2 locations, same ISP

                        1. Has Sonicwall firewall
                        2. Has pfsense firewall

                        So common thing is download from netgate and ISP...

                            Oh so you still see this even without pfSense involved at all? It must be a problem in the route then. Like something at your ISP routing packets via multiple routes perhaps.

                            What happens if you route traffic over a VPN to somewhere else so you bypass anything the ISP is doing?
