      I got a fresh install of pfsense. Sometimes when I try to go to certain websites (google for example) It wont load(page unresponsive). It appears to be random, as sometimes the pages load and sometimes they don't. I tried disabling Hardware Checksum Offloading and the problem still happens.

      I've read that my dns settings can do this too, but all I changed in that was add the google dns. I also changed the hostname and Domain of the system. "pfSense.ark"

      Specs:
      Dell Optiplex 3020 SSF
      Integrated Realtek RTL8151GD?
      Intel PRO 1000 PT Quad Port 1Gb PCI

      Im using the integrated ethernet card as the WAN.

      I currently got it set up inside my network. As in my router is providing the WAN and the LAN is connected to my pc.
