      I'm running 2.25 release. My original nic seems to have died to I used the excuse to drop my hdd into another box, reconfigured it, and was off. Now, every couple hours or so, it blows up on me, and the net dies until I reboot.

        That is now a very old release of pfSense software. apinger was removed since then and replaced with "dpinger".
        Upgrade to the current release 2.3.4 for a start. Then you will be able to see if you have some other real underlying issue.

          That's in the log. On the console I have this https://i.imgur.com/2C7G8ew.jpg followed by https://i.imgur.com/xWDI0Sn.jpg

          I'll try upgrading, makes me nervous though.

            It should, especially if you're a heavy user of packages on your current old version. The 2.3.x version tree made SIGNIFICANT changes to packages, including removing many that were out-of-date, not working properly anymore, or had been removed from FreeBSD ports.

            Make sure you read the upgrade notes before doing the upgrade!!!

                Any other suggestions aside from upgrading? Also I can't say I care for the new ui.

                  This is still happening. I can't figure out what's going on.

                      The NIC's are realtek, both onboard. The wiring should be fine, it started when verizon installed gigabit internet on monday. I don't think it's the ISP. I disabled dpinger and the issue persists, but there's nothing in the logs now that says it's broken. Basically the box lags and the web ui becomes unresponsive.

                      On the console it says apresolve: can't allocate llinfo for xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx on re1.

                        The NIC's are realtek, both onboard.

                        There is your issue. Freebsd isn't very kind for Realtek NICs.
                        I suggest buying Intel
