pfSense on Watchguard M370
-
Yes, you can use the Net Installer. Just be sure to enable the serial console in the installer so it boots to that in the resulting install. The installer itself will show on both consoles.

@stephenw10 I don't have enough points to upvote, so I'll just say thank you Stephen
!Now, if the seller agrees to selling me that M570, I should be good to tackle this thanks to all the good info supplied by the community in this thread :)

Does anyone still have the modified bios for the M470?
-
I have the file that was posted but I never tested it. I don't know if @Carnivore-0 ended up testing it above.
-
@stephenw10 No Sir, i have not tested it yet. Just finished building my M570, will test it on the M370 in the near future.
-
Is it possible to receive a copy of the unlocked bios bin file? I have three M370 appliances, and I would like to try to program them with my ch341a programmer.
-
Anyone has an idea about the power consumption of the M350/370's once they run PfSense ?
-
There is no M350. The M390 is an ARM device so can't run pfSense.
For the M370 it depends on what CPU you're running and how many ports you use. But with the stock Celeron G3900 I see ~18W at idle with my (totally uncalibrated) kill-a-watt style meter.

Hello everyone, is it possible to have the BIOS unlocked for the WatchGuard M470?
Thanks a lot in advance. -
I'm not sure it's actually been tested by either user recently. You need an external rom flash tool to write it. What do you need to do?

@stephenw10 I'd like to upgrade the CPU and increase the RAM to 32 GB on the WatchGuard and try installing Proxmox on an SSD. It's crazy, but I'd like to try.
I have the programmer to be able to flash the unlocked bios. -
PM sent.

@stephenw10 thank you
