So bizarre. What packages do you have installed? Any IDS like snort or suricata that might have blocked you for some reason?
-
No packages' have been installed. It is vanilla pfsense.
-
You don't happen to have an IP address conflict on your network, do you? You seem to have a LOT of packet loss. You need to narrow it down to your PC or pfSense. Use pfSense Diagnostics - Ping to ping those same sites and see if you get the same level of loss. That will tell you if it's your link that is flaky, or if it's something within your LAN.
-
How do I do that?
-
Well, in pfSense, go to the Diagnostics menu and select Ping. Then put those same hosts you tried to ping before into the Hostname field one by one, and see if you get the same level of packet loss. Bump the maximum number of pings to 10 or 20.
You didn't answer my question about IP conflict, which might explain the behaviour you're seeing here. Do you have any other clients on your LAN?
-
This is getting very strange. I tried my VPN, NordVPN. I chose UK servers. I, while connected to my VPN can connect to my pfsense box. Once dis-connected, I cannot connect.

Problem solved: In Nord VPN, there is a setting called "invisibility on LAN" I put this on the on position. When I turned this off. I can now access my pfsense box web gui.

Good catch. I never would have figured that one out in a million years.
