        @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.

        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 reboot, or more depending on packages, and device or disk speed.
