        @netgate1100guy See https://forum.netgate.com/topic/178049/pfsense-plus-23-01-updates-on-the-1100-and-2100-systems/. The repos for 22.05 are turned off for those models due to a serious problem updating older devices. Once they are happy with the revised update script and enable it again, you can upgrade (or set the update branch to previous/22.05 and stay there), or if you don't want to wait you can manually install 23.01 and go from there. I think the update looks more complicated than it is...it just copies the image to the 1100's drive.

        Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
        When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.
