        @periko The shared WAN IP will need to be static so it can switch to the backup router. Normally all three are in the same subnet.

        To upgrade, select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings. When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to reboot, or more depending on packages, CPU, and/or disk speed.
        Only install packages for your version of pfSense.
