      @jdeloach Thanks I registered and got my License but don't see the latest version of pfBlockerNG 2.2.5_28 which is needed as I understand...only have 2.2.5_27 available...Will I have to uninstall the package and reinstall?

        No pfBlockerNG 2.2.5_28 should show in the pfSense package manager as an update.

          @BBcan177 The package is not showing. for me still says 2.2.5_27... Is there a way to force the update?

            What version of pfSense? Try to run this command from the shell "pkg update -f"

                I asked the devs and got this response:

                "If they are on snapshots (2.4.5 or 2.5.0) then the new packages are not immediately available, but will only show up when the next snapshot run happens."

                "Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it."
