      Netgate is pleased to announce the release of pfSense software version 2.4.5-p1, now available for new installations and upgrades!

      pfSense software version 2.4.5-p1 is a maintenance release that brings several important stability and bug fixes for issues present in pfSense 2.4.5-RELEASE. pfSense 2.4.5-RELEASE-p1 updates and installation images are available now! To see a complete detailed list of changes, see the Release Notes.

      Always take a backup of the firewall configuration prior to any major change to the firewall, such as an upgrade.

      Do not update packages before upgrading pfSense! Either remove all packages or do not update packages before running the upgrade.

      The upgrade will take several minutes to complete. The exact time varies based on download speed, hardware speed, and other factors such as installed packages. Be patient during the upgrade and allow the firewall enough time to complete the entire process. After the update packages finish downloading it could take 10-20 minutes or more until the upgrade process ends. The firewall may reboot several times during the upgrade process. Monitor the upgrade from the firewall console for the most accurate view. If the update check fails, or the update does not complete, run 'pkg install -y pfSense-upgrade' to ensure that 'pfSense-upgrade' is present.

      Consult the Upgrade Guide for additional information about performing upgrades to pfSense software.

                Did you reboot after changing that?

                  Yes. I had to remove it manually from boot/loader.conf.

                  Currently rebooting and I will let you know in 2 minutes how it goes.

                              FYI - SG-1100 Sitting on "Please wait while the update system initializes" for over 10 minutes.

                              Will continue to wait. Still have active internet.

                                    The update seems to go well, the only issue i have found is updating the service watchdog package, which sits on "Please wait while the update system initializes" on a number of my boxes. Other packages seem to be updating okay.

                                        Smooth upgrade on SG-4860-1U.
                                        Only issue I had was DNS Resolver didn't start on its own but I could've been my config.

                                            I just upgraded from 2.4.4.p3 to 2.4.5 p1. It took a long time but it working okay so far. I noticed that ram usage is high than before.
