During upgrade the following info is printed:

One moment please, reinstalling packages…

Trying to fetch package info...
Unable to communicate with https://packages.pfsense.org. Please verify DNS and interface configuration, and that pfSense has functional Internet connectivity.

I can confirm that Internet is accessible.

Not even sure this is related to the release, as another amd64 system which I upgraded yesterday, cannot access the package repository any longer. Worked fine during upgrade though.

Looking at this thread, you just have badly unstable IPv6 connectivity. Nothing to do with pfSense really and messing with various snapshots definitely will not help.

I was not aware the package repository resolved to IPv6. After disabling the WAN6 interface, I can once again access the packages.

Thanks!
