      Attempted to restore a new SG-3100 from a config that I had on a deployed device. My problem was that I forgot that the WAN had a static IP on the deployed device which would not work in my test environment. Once the restore had completed there was a message about installing packages. Realizing that there was no way to update the packages without changing the WAN to DHCP I did so, not heeding the warnings on the screen about cancelling the package reinstallation. (I know, I know, it's my fault.)

      Now I am unable to even access the Console to make any changes or restorations. Any help would be appreciated.

      This is what I'm seeing in console, it will not move past this.

        @dedskwirl said in Help! I think I bricked my SG-3100.:

        Have you tried the linked instructions to reinstall pfSense on the SG-3100?

        You'll need to obtain a recovery image from Netgate and then abort the boot process when it says:

          @bigsy at the point it just says

          Marvell:
          

          with a cursor. Not sure where to go from there. Do I need to usb boot and load the image onto a flash drive?

            @dedskwirl Have you read through the instructions I linked to above? :)

            At the

            Marvell>>
            

            prompt you have to type

            run recovery
            

            then press enter, and that will boot the USB recovery image you have previously obtained from Netgate.

              restore the image from usb, open a ticket and ask for instructions if you don't have it
              you can also try to

              boot -s
              

              and

              /sbin/fsck -y /

                  So I think I might have messed up when I changed the WAN settings to DHCP. This time I DID clear the package lock before changing the WAN settings and I still locked up. I also turned off IPv6 on the WAN interface which I did last time as well because I do not need it. Is it possible that is causing the problem? This is the message I received from the GUI after making that change.

                  PHP ERROR: Type: 64, File: /etc/inc/config.inc, Line: 51, Message: require_once(): Failed opening required 'Net/IPv6.php' (include_path='.:/etc/inc:/usr/local/www:/usr/local/captiveportal:/usr/local/pkg:/usr/local/www/classes:/usr/local/www/classes/Form:/usr/local/share/pear:/usr/local/share/openssl_x509_crl/')
