I agree, you might see that page as "not an answer". That means you didn't understand your question ;)

IMHO : best advise right now :
If, by any chance, there is something not ok on their (Netgate) side, don't start messing around.
This day is special, 99 % of all people 'are not at work' today.

For me, right now, using a pfSense 23.01 :

What error are you seeing from pkg -d update?

In your output above you see 'no route to host', do you have default route?

bootable · Apr 10, 2023, 1:20 PM

@stephenw10 Yes I have a default route

Shows no route still not that it can't resolve it. Try: pkg -d4 update

@bootable

Your pfSense can't reach the destination.
This could be a local issue, or anywhere upstream.
And an extra possibility for you : you use a VM ....

edit

pkg -4 -d4 update

to force IPv4 usage ( and not the preferred IPv6 )

bootable · Apr 10, 2023, 2:01 PM

@gertjan yes that box is in a VM, directly connected to internet ( the WAN of the VM hasta Public ip address)

stephenw10 · Apr 10, 2023, 2:42 PM

Yeah it appears to be trying to use v6 and has no v6 routes.

-d4 forces it to use v4 and debug output.

The fact it's just timing out implies it still cannot reach it.

What routes do you have there? You have a default gateway set that is a gateway group with only one gateway in it. Which is odd.
Check Diag > Routes (or netstat -rn at the cli) to be sure you actually have a default route. And that you don't have any rogue routes that might be matching the server address.
