      Did a fresh install of 2.0-RELEASE, and when I go to Availible Packages, I get the following error message:
      "Unable to communicate with www.pfsense.com. Please verify DNS and interface configuration, and that pfSense has functional Internet connectivity."

      I did of course verify that this is not a DNS or connectivity issue. Also tried both amd64 and i386, and it's the same with both.

      Is it just me, or is there others experiencing the same thing? And is there any solution to this?

          Weird. Also tried on two different computers, one physical and one virtual. Same thing on both.

            If you go to "Diagnostics" –> "DNS Lookup" and try with "hotmail.com" what you get ? ( post screenshot)

              DNS and everything else works fine.

              Hostname or IP
              = 65.55.72.183
              65.55.72.167
              65.55.72.151
              65.55.72.135

              Create alias out of these entries.
              Resolution time per server
              Server Query time
              127.0.0.1 16 msec
              192.168.72.2 5 msec
