          *not loader.conf as it will be overwritten during OS update
          you have to create it (just SSH into the box (WinSCP, Putty, etc.)
          /boot/loader.conf.local

          82541397-d472-4a08-ad04-8323b8fa1cf9-image.png

          and REBOOT*

          the BIOS is very important, this is a very outdated BIOS this can also be a problem
          (the upgrade is not easy due to the known USB problem of APU MOBOs but if I fail I will help)

          important: halt the system wait until 60 sec or more, disconnect PSU wait...wait.. and start

          *turn them all off: (TSO, LRO is not good for you, if you are a router, if you are an endpoint can help)

          6bdfa074-6a43-4124-8bdd-f107c23c2936-image.png

          REBOOT again!*
          (This will take effect after a machine reboot or re-configure of each interface.)

          +++edit:
          don't forget System Tunable either
          it is important to turn off flow control and EEE

          "tryforward IPv4 and v6" can also be important, do it

                                      sorry, but I ran out of ideas...
                                      we have nearly 40 APU4d4 units at our customers, but we have not yet experienced this behavior...

                                            Cron is a 'GUI type" package only.
                                            It just shows to the admin the system wide cron tasks. It's a close to 0 % charge for the system.

                                            Something to test : take the box to a site with a knowing to be good (fiber ..) "Internet Connexion".
                                            Test it.
                                            You'll be fixed : it's the box - or upstream (box) or the ISP - or even above the ISP, their POP line.

                                            pfSense, as software, can handle a couple of GBytes / sec - see the Youtube's as a show case.

                                            Edit : and where are the logs ??
