      Hello All!

      I have a "fresh" installed pfSense 2.6 CE (i have used a config.xml while install), and i would like to update it to Pfsense Plus. The registration was completed successfully, but when i set the update branch to pfSense Plus upgrade, i get unable to check for updates. Other branches working fine. I have executed pkg update from shell, and got this:

      Updating pfSense-core repository catalogue...

      Any solution for this? Thanks for the help!

        @havastamas You won't able update until you plug in your key which you should have gotten, on successfully completing the registration.

            @jarhead So, are you saying you already have pfSense 22.01 and are trying out the 22.05 development snapshot but nothing is working for you? If that's the case, you should post in Development section of the forum under version 22.05 development snapshot. You post is not clear, but it could be I.

                @havastamas Glad to hear that it magically fixed itself since you haven't stated what was the cause and how you fixed the issue so others could learn.
