      Any ideas? Should I simply attempt a reinstall?

          My apologies, that does not seem to be one of the options in the Tables dropdown. Here's what I see:

          __automatic_3fe7cb60_0
          bogons
          snort2c
          sshlockout
          virusprot
          webConfiguratorlockout

          Does that seem right?

              Firewall Maximum Table Entries? I already set it to 999999. Do I have to reboot to apply changes?

                You have to increase value before trying to apply a large list.

                You can disable pfblocker, increase table size and then re enable it.

                  My apologies. I disabled pfblocker and re-enabled and still no dice. I even tried a reinstall, but no new items showed up in my diagnostic tables list.

                      Try a smaller list.
                      Here pfblocker is working fine.

                        Is the status for the dashboard widget a green up arrow or a red down arrow?

                        Can you check your Firewall \ Rules \ WAN - to see if there is a pfblocker auto rule that has been created for each of your pfblocker lists ?

                        This page https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=42543.705 talks about a bug that might be causing your problem.
