        Try enabling the "State Table Size" in the System Info dashboard widget. Maybe your issue is different but it's easy to try and see......

          @stephenw10 - I'm seeing the same issues with the current release but I've never seen these problems before.

            @edmund - Thanks to all the "Enable State Table Size" comments, that "fixed" it, clearly there are bugs in the current release.👍 👍 👍

              Confirmed, thanks for reporting. I didn't see a bug open for it so I created one.

                @edmund For me it´s not helping, still "Unable to check for updates" :( (since 2.5, before everything was fine)

                  @aschenbecher - go to the "System Information" on the GUI and click on the settings icon (a spanner), then scroll all the way down offscreen to the end of the options and check that the "Enable State Table Size" is checked - then save the settings - this will display the State Table and enables both CPU usages and Update options.
                  I just tried this, by disabling the State Table Size option (I have no use for it) and disabling it killed the update option. Re-enableing the State Table option turned the upgrade option back on again.

                      And not something blocking scripts on the page? That will present exactly like that.

                          Do you have any items disabled in the system information widget?

                          If you go to System > Updates does it complete the check there?

                              @stephenw10 - I turned off the State Table and I can still get to the system:update option, it seems to be just the main dashboard that has the issue - turning off the State Table option also disables the CPU activity display.

                                Actually reviewing this are you saying that is does complete the update check but returns 'Unable to check for updates' ? Because that's an entirely different issue if so. You should open a new thread.

                                        Not currently. Not officially at least. We can normally reply there in minutes though.

                                          @stephenw10 Ok , I found the reason: Since I have multi Wan using 2 Gateway groups with failover, I have disabled the default Gateway (Routing > Default gateway > none). Thats the reason the console has no internet and cant check for updates. After changing it to automatic, Im receiving updates. Now I reverted back to 2.4.4 and there I can check for updates even without set a default gateway!

                                            I have the same issues: "Obtaining upgrade status" and "Retrieving CPU data" are stuck on the turning cog. Check under System | Update shows that I'm on the current version - "Status Up to date."

                                            OpenVPN, pfBlockerNG are working fine. NO issue with unbound (fingers crossed).
