      I am having trouble getting the router to work with pfsense using ver 2.0, what additional info do you guys need to help me out? I see several people have IPsec working with pfsense and the same linksys so it must be something obvious, i am confident that both ends are configured the same, any help would be awesome!

        Looks like your pfSense snapshot is a little out of date.

        When is that from? That UDP_ENCAP error was fixed a while ago. I'd update and then try again, to make sure that it isn't a problem with the snapshot you're using.

        Also, check Status > IPsec, see if it shows up there.

        And did you add firewall rules on the IPsec tab?

          Was using snapshot from the 18th, I just updated to:

          2.0-ALPHA-ALPHA
          built on Wed Sep 23 11:28:05 UTC 2009
          FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE-p3

          A picture is worth 1000 words, here are 8 snaps:
