        Looks better to me. What, exactly, isn't working?

        DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

          what isnt working right now is the package manger isnt showing the packages to install... cuz i was looking at the time when i uninstalled squid proxy and checked package manager... and i wanted temperature sensors motherboard monitor to see cpu .. but it cant read my motherboard and its a new motherboard and cpu.. but no biggy if i cant get temperature ..

          so always set the default gateway to wan in the system/route.. see i never knew that because it wasnt part of the nord tutorial

          but least this is showing potential so when it was set to automatic what was it doing bouncing back and forth wan and vpn

            Try running these:

            pkg-static clean -ya
            pkg-static install -yf pkg
            pkg-static install -yf pfSense-repo pfSense-upgrade

            Those should be safe from Diagnostics > Command Prompt but I would run them from the shell (Menu option 8, type exit when done.)

                OK so another package management process was already running at the time. Try it again?

                No need for a monitor. You can enable ssh.

                      It will give you command line access remotely over an encrypted connection.
