2.0 will it work normal for alix and home?
-
It's still alpha, but getting better all the time.
It might work fine, it might not, it's still a bit rough in some places.
It also still has debugging turned on in the kernel so it will be slower than it might be otherwise.
-
I'm currently running the 2.0 nanobsd version on alix2D13, webgui is functional
-
the things i need to work r following so if its ok with 2.0 then ill shift over to that and help solve bugs etc and test it:
webgui
DHCP on LAN and WAN bridged to LAN
wireless using atheros card
port forwarding
traffic shaper
NAT
firewall rules
dynamic DNS
UPNP
PPPoE -
Of those, most of those work OK. I think DynDNS still need some work for multi-wan, and I haven't tried UPnP.
I know of at least one redial fix for PPPoE that was found to be needed yesterday but I don't know if it was committed or not.
-
and lastly, can i save and restore the config from 1.2.3 to 2.0 or need to setup everything from scratch?
-
You can upgrade from 1.2.3 to 2.0, yes, but you can't go the other way, so be sure to keep backups before attempting an upgrade.
-
I don't mean to hijack this thread but whats the current status with pfsense and 802.11n wireless cards? Because my wireless card is a extended range 300MB/sec card and currently it only works as a 802.11g card.
We also have just a few users (about 5), but we do rely heavily on wireless. Need to have squid working, and caching videos, and much of the things that xbipin mentioned as well.
-
where can i get the update image files to 2.0 coz i cant find it at http://snapshots.pfsense.org/FreeBSD_RELENG_8_0/i386/pfSense_HEAD/updates/
-
Just be patient, the builds are being upgraded from ALPHA status to BETA status, so they're probably just hidden temporarily.
-
oh, so this would be much stable snapshots, thats great, ill wait for it to be ready.
-
I don't know about "much more stable" but it's heading that way.
It's still going to be BETA, not -RC or -RELEASE so there must still be a lot of caution involved.

i just upgraded to nanobsd 2.0 and following problems i faced
- on upgrade the traffic shaper rules dont import or dont exists anymore
- i need a 1 wan and 1 lan wizard rule for shaping but doesnt exists so i selected 1 wan and multi lan and selected 1 lan interface but it seems queues specific to upload r only created and not related to download as i see queues under WAN but nothing under LAN so download is not shaped.
- using wizard where can i see and fix those rules created for each type of traffic such as DNS, MRDP, they dont appear even in firewall floating rules?
- when i select multi wan and multi lan then it asks for number of wan interfaces and if i type 1 then still wizard doesnt go through
-
- cant find the reboot system option
–--update----------
sorry for this, actually i found things disappearing and then again appearing back on reboot, now i can see the reboot option -
Those issues are worthy of a new thread if you have not started one already. I suggest you start a new topic with a relevant subject line for the traffic shaping issues.
