                  Hi

                  Many post, but no real solution.

                  Will reboot the bridge for a test, but i doubt this wil work.

                  Regards.

                    Since you don't give any kind of information about your system and how far you have tested this it is really hard to help.

                    This is similar to: I can't use the trunk of my car. Can you help me? Please!

                      …

                      I have a second post running with lot's of info of my setup, but didn't have any response on that. I have a pfsense running in test, bridge mode, pinging worked etc. see:
                      http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,13677.0.html

                      Installed pfsense, did no reboot since then. So i guess installing packages only starts working AFTER you installed the system AND rebooted. Makes sense because before the installation it's like a live cd.

                      So if any others have this problem, maybe it's the same thing that got me :-)

                      thx for the help though.
