      System "Package Manager" (System->Packages) application cannot communicate with packages site when WAN configured on vlan interface ?
      Ping to gateway OK, to DNS ok… but ...unable to communicate with www.pfsense.com...
      Simply change WAN to "normal" interface and all OK (w/o reboot).
      Only for me ?

        The package manager works for me with WAN on VLAN.

        running on Dell PowerEdge R200 - bge(4) NIC on a ZyXEL GS-2024 switch.

        It may be worth probing what is going on with Wireshark or similar (it may help if your switch supports port mirroring). It could be an MTU issue.

        If you're using a bce(4) NIC, the driver in 7.2-RELEASE has various issues. There's a fixed version in RELENG_7 that could be worth having in pfSense based on 7.2-RELEASE; a backport of the new driver to 7.2-RELEASE is available at http://people.freebsd.org/~delphij/misc/193358.tar.bz2 (untar and apply over the source tree).
