      Hi,

      Updating packages is very, VERY slow. My connection itself is >200Mbps, so that should not be the issue. When doing the following, it takes ages (only 108MB to download, and it takes +/- 6 hours):

      pkg upgrade -f
      

      What's also strange is that some packages are not updated to the latest version that way. Suricata eg is already updated to 4.0.1, while my repository still says 4.0.0 (see screenshot)

      When going in the GUI to Installed packages, I also get "Unable to retrieve package information". I've checked this topic, but didn't find any solution.

      However, what's strange to me is that the front page says "The system is on the latest version." very fast (<2s).

      Any idea how to resolve this?

      Thanks
