        FAQ.

        Make sure DNS is correct on firewall.

        Turn back off the custom package location stuff, its not needed for pfSense.com hosted packages.

              Packages don't have a high priority atm. We are working on getting the base system ready to release 1.0. As you can see from the package list packages have maintainers. These maintainers don't need to be pfSense members and as pfSense is open source everybody is welcome to add packages to it. However officially supported packages that will  be available for download at pfSense.com after 1.0 was released will have to be reviewed by pfSense dev-team-members. It's not a matter of 1.0 or 1.1 but of people submitting/working on packages. Most of the packages were initially added by the pfSense team but now need maintainers to be kept alive and working.
