      hi

      does anyone have any ideas?

      it looks like css is being affected to as pages are not loading correctly, some images are not there or show corruption, not sure what is happening as nothing is in logs?

      Thanks very much

        might be squid cache corruption.

        you could try clearing the cache:

            I have tried turning off snort, squid and openvpn, but some websites still are not loading correctly?

            some do eventually load after several refreshes, nothing is logged and there are no failed packets,

            It only seems to be since i installed the latest pfsence release, any ideas?

              Your browser, your RAM, your net connection…

                its affecting multiple browsers and devices,

                I have a ssd drive fitted could it possibly be the ssd drive?

                also have 16gb of memory installed so may try removing a stick of ram at a time and see how things go

                  pfSense is installed i literally thousands of places.  It does not just corrupt your traffic.  It must be something to do with your environment in conjunction with pfSense perhaps, or some weird corruption as a result of the upgrade.  Sometimes the pragmatic approach is best: if all else fails, nuke your install and restore it from config.xml backup.

                      There's some caching going on somewhere, either the bad images are being cached on your PC or the good ones are cached on your phone.

                          I've been using various versions of ESXi along with various versions of pfSense for years without any issues, and certainly not bizarro ones like image corruption.  You would think that if you're experiencing data corruption, it wouldn't just affect image files but ALL data coming down your wire.

                                I don't know what to tell you.  If you have disabled all middlemen packages like squid, snort, etc… if you aren't using your VPN... if you have cleared the caches on all browsers and you STILL get weird css/image glitches then perhaps you're just cursed?  What happens when you take the router out of the mix altogether and just connect directly?  Do you still have these issues?
