        Just a thought…. in 2.2.x they introduced Unbound as the default resolver.

        Could it be related to that?

        If changing DNS forwarder to the former one also available in the GUI, will it work??

          Hmmm? Not really sure how's this related to unbound, or even any resolver at all? When I put limiters on a NAT firewall rule, the traffic stop flowing. As simple as that.

            I have same problem.
            Firstly i am sorry for my english.
            I install squid+transparent mode. Filter active and  everything works good.
            When i do limiter activate, then i cant internet access.

            In proxy server, disable transparent mode; then internet can access and works fine limiter. But filter doesnt works.
            What is problem and what can i do?
            Help pls.  Regard.

              Ditch the proxy, or wait, or get debugging and coding.

                Problem is at the same time transparent mode and traffic shapper doesnt works.
                If i disable limiter then no block internet. But i enable limiter block internet.
                Or i disable transparent mode and enable limiter then works fine but doesnt work filter.

                What do I need to work both at the same time?

                      I also noticed this yesterday. After limiters added to pass all rule and logging enabled, the rule blocks all traffic for that interface and fills up the System logs.

                        Your "fills up the System logs" non-issue has nothing to do with the topic here. When you log ALL passed traffic, then yeah, your logs are going to fill up, limiters or not.

                          This should be fixed in 2.2.3 snapshots.

                                Yeah this is still broken. Don't use limiters on NAT.

                                  Still not working on Pfsense 2.2.3 final release. I need both, limiter and  transparent squid proxy to work together for my scenario.

                                  Regards,

                                    I have been having this problem also. It's a BIG problem actually for me. Does anyone know if it's been fixed yet, and if not if it's been brought to the developers attention ?

                                      Apparently the changes to fix this are significant so they have pushed it to 2.3.  I see they're planning a 2.2.5 first so you're looking at months (at least) before limiters are usable again. Use 2.1.5 and hope no significant vulnerabilities appear since they have stated they will not be patched.  Or evaluate other options, as I am.

                                      2.2 is, for the most part, useless if you rely on dummynet limiters.

                                          That's a pretty good question.

                                          I just clicked around and couldn't find a 2.1.5 download.

                                          You might want to start thinking about other products/distros if you can't wait months for the functionality you need.

                                          I <3 pfSense but this limiter shit is getting old.

                                            Just click on the "Just show me the mirrors" on the download page. Select one, and go to "old" dir.
