      Hello All!

      I was trying to install some packages this afternoon and the downloads are crazy slow. 30+ minutes to update pfBlockerNG. After some digging it looks like when I ping netgate servers using IPV6 about 50% of the packets are dropping. IPV4 seems okay. I don't think it is on my end because I am not having issues with any other IPV6 addresses.

      Anyone else having this issue?

          @nollipfsense thanks! It seems better now. Comparing some traceroutes it looks like it was an issue after my ISP but before Netgates servers.
