      A few weeks ago or maybe a month when this issue was brought up I did post a link here that outlines what the supported packages are in pfsense
      https://www.netgate.com/supported-pfsense-plus-packages

      There are caveats to this list but the main point being if your package isn’t here it’s not supported. If it is here AND it explicitly states it is supported by Netgate then it’s good to install otherwise stay away from any package .

      I agree with all points here and communication should’ve been clearer. Let’s hope they are reading this and provide an update.

      Firewall: NetGate,Palo Alto-VM,Juniper SRX
      Routing: Juniper, Arista, Cisco
      Switching: Juniper, Arista, Cisco
      Wireless: Unifi, Aruba IAP
      JNCIP,CCNP Enterprise

        I saw my previous link has expired. I just uploaded the patched kernel again to filetransfer.io. For anyone who doesn't want to wait you can download here: https://filetransfer.io/data-package/MEWJVf0K

        I'm running this patched kernel now for a few weeks without any problems with IPTV / IGMPProxy

          The point is, igmpproxy is included(in this case without any addon/package installation), so we can assume its fully supported by the whole appliance.(and changes tested against!)

          For sure Netgate are not the maintainers of igmpproxy, but it has to be tested against the changes and in this case something in pfsense-(hardened?)kernel was missing obviously

          And if something got broke, a fix must available shorter timelines, esp when its an primary feature for most home users, with payment or not.

          The handling of such problems makes the difference of an project claiming "Pro" abilities.
          And we use the software cause we believe in the vision of "pfsense", not simply cause its "free"!

          And as my personal statement, if i had an subscription plan with Netgate, i wouldnt be just any person. I would be really angry now! Netgate had to fix it in hours cause the new kernel broke the usage, maintainer of this package or not.
          Its an routing, firewalling internet appliance, home and business case use...iptv is as much part of this game as firewalling or an vpn-endpoint it does

          btw THX Rai80 for the download (fyi got an trojan message from malwarebytes for this download)

            Now the interesting part would be to observe how Netgate handles this situation if a paying customer opens a ticket. Anyone up for it?

                    Since it seems like it will take a 'very long' time until this will be fixed and a system patch is not possible for this issue .. is someone able to provide me with a link to a patch please? I'm running 2.7.2 and my household is getting little bit annoyed with the ongoing issues with IPTV :).

                    Thanks!

                        Thanks, downloaded and installed. For future updates, I can follow the default process and it will overwrite this upgrade package I assume?
                        Will test later today if IPTV now works again without issues.

                          @ninin06 could this patch also be installed on a Netgate SG3100 appliance, which is ARM based?

                            no, this patch is x64 only.

                                  From which safe source can I download the package for pfsense+?

                                  And how do I install it? (pkg install xxx.pkg?)

                                    You can download it from here. I downloaded the kernel files directly from Netgate and made them available here. In the meantime, the kernels have been downloaded several times :)

                                          @Tilburg-013 I guess so as the associated bug https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/15043 has been closed with 24.03 as the target release. You can also see the release overview here: https://redmine.pfsense.org/projects/pfsense/roadmap#pfsense-plus-24.03
