Can't update 2.4.4p2 - doesn't seem to exist? (SOLVED)

Exactly the same hare, on 3 different installations on different providers:

Fetching pfSense-kernel-pfSense-2.4.4_2.txz: . done
pkg-static: https://pkg.pfsense.org/pfSense_v2_4_4_amd64-core/All/pfSense-kernel-pfSense-2.4.4_2.txz: Operation timed out
Failed)

It seems to be a DNS issue:

nslookup pkg.pfsense.org 8.8.8.8
  Server:         8.8.8.8
  Address:        8.8.8.8#53

  Non-authoritative answer:
  *** Can't find pkg.pfsense.org: No answerde

while

nslookup pfsense.org 8.8.8.8

Any update on this? It seems like the update system is down.

Hello:

https://www.netgate.com/docs/pfsense/install/upgrade-troubleshooting.html#pkg-pfsense-org-has-no-a-aaaa-record

After taking a backup, I would review the suggested steps in the "update troubleshooting" area:

@chrismacmahon Even without A/AAAA records there are issues with the update/packages server today anyway.
