      This device is 6 months old. When rebooting, it prompts to set up LAN/WAN interfaces and VLANS. No configuration is lost once I reassign the LAN/WAN interfaces. It happens after EVERY reboot. Thoughts?

        @mmeshurle Strange - seems there is something that does not settle correctly in the configuration file after assignment.
        Which version of pfsense + are you running?
        I would consider saving the config when it’s working, and the reinstalling it from scratch using the latest recoveryimage. After that restore your saved config file.

        Love the no fuss of using the official appliances :-)

          What interfaces do you have configured? Something obscure?

          The reason it stops there is that one of the configured interfaces is not present at that point. Most virtual interface types are ignored to allow that.
          Since it then allows you to configure them it must be present when you do that.
