      Wanted to make my anger a bit less here...

      Didn't hat the time to debug the problem, though, my setup isn't the "Easy Peasy" Standard setup at all, I am totally disappointed every update again....

      If I hat the time, it would be migrated to something other than pfsense CE.... but hey the dentist has the badest teeth, doesn't he? so after 17 Years I now have the badest firewall which does not even survive one minor update without making problems - since the last years.......

      Rant_over....

        The day you have some time left, consider this advise : systems, like Internet access routers/firewalls, that are really important to you, they should be 'simple' to set up.
        So, pfSense, or any other TP/D-link device, or, why not, a Sisco PIX 123xxx, keep the setup to a bare(able) minimum. From then one, as you don't use a lot of (code) resources on your system, the chance you use some thing that no one else uses
        This one is easy to understand : when you use more code, chances are greater you find a bug ^^

        I know, pfSense offers loads of 'stuff' and everybody wants to use all the available options.
        Been there, seen that.
        That said, "IPv6" is hardly special although many ISPs make a mess out of it.
        A Multi WAN is maybe somewhat more a special thing, but rather well documented.

        Updating a system : no need to be paranoid, but always be prepared to make the step backwards, if needed. Make use of the inverse Murphy's law : if you are well prepared, the preparation wasn't needed.

        Ah, you really didn't use any of the other ones mentioned above ^^ I consider that a good thing because you don't know what you miss (I'm happy for you).
        You don't make me believe that the grass is greener elsewhere 😊

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??
