      I've had PfSense for some time and more than happy with it. Yesterday my mini PC just stopped. So retasked a old mini PC and tried to download the excellent installer I used last time and can't find it. Apparently I have to download an installer which wants an internet connection when my whole system is dead. So reconfigured everything to get an internet connection, thanks for that, and I still can't download the image I want. It fails. Please ensure the intern who wrote the installer doesn't get any bonus this year. He needs to learn the benefits of testing before going into production.

      Why are you making this more compicated than it needs to be? Is the intention to retire PfSense CE? I was happy with it but now I can't get it. Or is this just a stepping stone to removing CE altogether? I can understand you adding functionality but a online connection for router software and a installer that doesn't even work properly. Crazy.

      Anyway, in the meantime where can i get an USB image of CE, An old one will do.

      Regards,
      Not a very happy user.

        Thanks for the link.

        Questions still stand and I thought a little more about it. If this isn't getting tested are you skimping on the testing anywhere else? Very concerning.

          How did the Net Installer fail? The new beta has fixed almost everything we are aware of. I've been testing it for weeks.

          If there are still issues we need to know about them.

            If I have issues how do I report them? Forum thread or bug report?

              Either will work. Or both! 😉

              We usually prefer a forum post first just so we can triage issues that have already been solved or are actually some other cause.
