      The MTU-Problems solved:
      Check "IP-do-not-fragment compatibility"…

      the issue to surf to several websites (e.g. ford.com) still exist.
      I have all packages uninstalled except NRPE...

      Other Routers/Firewalls (LANCOM, IPFire) doesn't cause this problem.
      On fresh bare metal installation (Pentium 4 with 3c905-TX) I have the same issue.

      suggestions are welcome

            Without some more capture parameters (what filters were specified?, is this an edited version of the capture? etc) it is not possible to give an accurate interpretation of the capture.

            Is this traffic blocked by firewall rule? (By default, all traffic on NON-LAN interfaces is blocked.)

            Does a packet capture on the WAN interface show this traffic leaving pfSense? Does it get a response?

              After your post suddenly www.spiegel.de works.

              Now I have the same problem.
              I have installed a new Workstation in our DMZ (no restrictions from DMZ (192.168.1.0) to external (.)
              this is the output from wieshark of this machine with pfsense and LANCOM as default gateway.

              other domains are accessible.

              Can you instruct me, how I capture and filter the WAN-Nic, because we have on this a high load.

              Thanks….

                … you see in the report -pfsense-
                after waiting approx 30Seconds, the Internet Explorer open BING to query "www.spiegel.de"...

                    Hi Reiner,

                    thanks for your reply.
                    Allmost all websites are accessible, just a few site (spiegel.de) are sometimes not (for a few days).
                    OK I send you the requested reports…

                      Hi this was only an idea because years ago it was often a problem for ADSL users especially from Yahoo  and AOL which had only ~1448 and ~1412 bytes MTU instead of "normal" 1492 so many sides weren't working..
